Bridging Program in Australia

[michikoy]

Hi. I am new here. I don't know exactly where to go. I am a registered nurse here in the Philippines and I am interested in studying in Australia for a bridging course that will help me become a registered nurse there. I need some help on looking for a good school that offers a bridging course.

My aunt told me that a friend of her friend just went to AU to take up a test and in 6 months she's there for a bridging program. and I have this friend who has a friend who became a registered nurse in AU in 6 months time too. This agency is offering me to study for a certificate III aged care with occupational English test for 46 weeks in Einstein College but it costs too much. So now, I am trying to look for a school wherein I can apply by myself and hopefully get in. I am hoping I could leave for AU this June 2011. I am a bit lost on what to do. Can you help me, please? Any suggestions? ? Please help me. Thank you very much.

(Sydney area would be better since my parents are more familiar and in favor of that place... though other cities/areas will be great too)

Would you recommend buying a printer while on placement? ETEA doesn't seem to provide printing services for students and if we're out on placements, I reckon it'd be much easier if you could have your own particularly if you're somewhere in the outback/remote areas.

What do you think???

buy where? printers are cheaper here in aus :)

Hi, is that a sc 600 visa? How many weeks did you wait for it?

yes.. My VISA was granted 3 working days after it was lodged. It was fast coz i was already done with my medical last November..

For my fellow classmates for ACN July,:) do you already have accommodation? I still have none. And is travelling alone. I hope to find an affordable place near the school. Any suggestion? Thank you!!
