Bridging Program in Australia

World Registration

Published

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. :clown:

(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)

Hi! I applied at IHNA too, they also told me theyd send the offer letter in 2 days but I havent received it yet. Which campus and intake did you apply for?

already got my offer letter. im for july 12 at perth.

hi everyone, i just want to ask if we need to pay the full tuition fee of the school before lodging a 456 vis or do just the certificate of admission from the school is enough? TIA.

Hi! I will probably avail the accommodation but i'm still waiting for my consultancy firm for any advice. They will also tell me what visa to take.. See you in Perth! :)

What agency are you in? I'm from ams. How did you pay your enrollment fee? I cant pay through the payonline link because i don't have the invoice number yet.. I read here it is emailed seperately.

Philman. They paid the fee but ihna sent me the invoice then I forwarded it to Philman.. Yes they will send it to you separately..

When did you receive your invoice because i got the offer letter email but not the invoice email yet. Did you wait for the invoice email before paying the enrollment fee?

did you mean the online interview? Its a 20-item set of multiple choice type of questions that you have to answer within 10 minutes. You have two chances to pass the interview. The questions would depend on what field/specialization you tick. One mandaiotory subject is General nursing. You have options like medical, surgical, pediatric, cardiac, renal, emergency, icu, etc. The questions range from nursing functions, medications (ex. side effects), health teachings, etc. They are practical and much like the set of questions for board exams/nclex format.

I suggest that you do some practice tests online to refresh your mind, focusing on what you specialize so that it would be easier for you. If you have been into practice for many years, it can help you also.

Good luck!
