Meeting APHRA requirements as a International Trained Nurse from the Philippines - Page 55

go for Victoria

hi ishtin,

When exactly is ACFE's january intake? Which date in January? Thank you.

3 schools are due till september 30, 2012 validity for accreditation. is there anyone here bound for intake after the said validity? is there anyone here got their offer letter beyond september, especially those 3 schools. IHNA, ACFE, and ETEA...what will happen if they will not be accredited by the time you are about to have your intakes? please give some advice

i had mine in queensland.. they processed my application for 2 months.. and i was able to ask for an extension, unlike those who had submitted their papers in victoria.

Hi. When did you lodge your application to Queensland? How long was their extension?

hello to everyone!
if I may ask, can i use the checklist that can be found here:http://mcintranet.musc.edu/clined/PC...cklst MUSC.pdf for my CV? but this was also used by one of the members here. do you think it's ok? because i noticed that it's complete and comprehensive...

but im a nurse in a medical-surgical unit, so do i need to include the newborn/ob skills?(although i observed those skills back in college)

thanks for the help

But I guess not in APHRA VIC. I just don't understand why APHRA's decision/policy varies in different states. :spin:

Hi, you might consider taking a look on this website. Its more detailed and comprehensive. This is the one I used as reference before and I got no problem..

AusPhilRN: Standard CV/Resume for Overseas Trained Nurse

Hi everyone.

I would just like to ask about the whole "extension, finishing the bridging program with an expired LOE" issue.

Um from what I understand is, once you're given an eligibility letter, you're undergoing an assessment. So they've (AHPRA) received your documents and everything but the one thing that you're lacking is the "bridging course." So they've given us a year to complete everything, including the bridging program. Based on what the forumers have been saying in allnurses, everyone should complete their bridging program within the one year validity of our letters. If we do finish our bridging program, but our LOE's have already expired, we have to reapply for another assessment, or another "eligibility letter." And that's another $540 AUD for the app fee, which I prefer not pay for the second time. I guess by that time, if you we do reapply for another assessment, they would consider our application and not anymore recommend a bridging program since we've already taken one and we can now push through with the registration as a Australia RN smoothly.


The only problem here is, I don't want to pay another $540 just to be assessed again if I can get in an earlier intake than May.


That's how understood everything. But, I've already sent AHPRA an inquiry regarding that this morning and i'm still waiting for their response.

If anyone could share their input, please do clarify everything.
