Newly grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand

to aelith:

What is a pre-registered nursing degree? It is the same as enrolled nurse?

Hello LinkRN,

No. Pre-registered Nursing degree simply means that the degree is recognised by the relevant state regulating authority and that graduates of that degree will be eligible for registration in that state. If you are a graduate of the said recognised degrees, your application for registration will be expedited as the State regulating authority doesn't need to review again if your degree has satisfied competency standards for nursing practice.

To become an enrolled nurse, you need to finish a Pre-enrolled Nursing program. It is a diploma level only not a degree.

Hi thinkerbel! will give you details of the center once I am allowed to send via PM

Hi. May I ask how long is the bridging program????

@ xysy25

Sis, the bridging program depends on the state and the institution offering the program. It can be as short as 6 -8 weeks to as long as 6 months. So, it will all depend on which state you are going to apply for registration.

i already lodged my application in QNC.
i' m gonna do it on my own.
for those who did the same thing, pls. pm me
and probably exchange ideas.
we need each other's support ryt now.

Hi, Aelith! This thread is getting longer. I don't have to post any question because all I have to do is read every inquiry asked of you. I think they should put a dedicated page for you here, eh?

Take care & Godspeed
