I am in need of a nickel strike to be plated OVER Ag which has been plated over a ceramic base... any ideas?

Thank you...

This is one of the few cases that I would recommend a sulfamate strike rather than a Woods strike.

Reason, it uses a much higher pH and it plates a lot faster.
I would try it on scrap pieces starting with the highest recommended pH and lowering it as required.
