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 everyone!

Can anyone suggest a school with currently open June or August intakes? :(

try IHNA :) i think they are now on august intake

hmm. it seems that no one noticed or paid attention to my query/request.lol

anyway, one more question, will there be an additional fee for ahpra registration once you're done with the bridging program? (aside from the one that we paid to ahpra for assessment of documents prior to bridging..). and how much will that cost?

the registration fee would be 160aud

Thanks for the info noveau! So registration fee for AHPRA is 160 AUD after the Bridging Program :)

yes that's after the bridging program, when we file for our registration and when we renew we will pay also.

Are you also rooting for Alpine. Though quite more expensive, I think I am into their offer because this way, I won't have to worry about the accommodation and travels anymore.

thank u so much for the replies. so, maybe i'll just round it off close to 1mill php. how i wish i could win in a lottery. lol

Me too. :)

Specializes in Pedia, MS, ICU.

try william light. ACFE have intakes like almost every month too. ACFE's fee is $13k. its in the city. there's a lot of accomodation. im

not sure for the clinical placement though.

Ohh.. I thought that after BP, when your school forwards your documents to AHPRA for registration there wouldn't be any additional fee.

But of course upon application for AHPRA (before BP) there is a corresponding fee.

Zheann, the $500 is after the Bridging Program? :)

Nope.. The $500 is upon application and I've heard there's registration fee after BP..
