Bridging Program in Australia

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)

Best in terms of what? There are numerous factors to consider when choosing a school. Weather it'll be the length, location, tuition fee etc. Personally, there is no such thing as "best school". It's all up to the students. You might be studying in a very prestigous school yet your performance is sub par of what is expected. You just have to make the most of your experience.

Yes you are right. But if you were to recommend between Sydney or Melbourne what would you choose?

Neither. As I said, it is all about your priorities and factors you consider when choosing your school. In my case, I went to Perth since I have relatives there.

Thank you for the help.

I really appreciate it.

Hi, I'm planning to take the bridging program of ACN. My only nursing experience is in an ICU setup for 10 months but that was last 2009. I'm afraid that I might fail the course. Please provide any feedback about ACN's program or what do you think of my knowledge and experience to go through the course?

Has anyone been interviewed by acfe here before? Any idea about the interview would be appreciated. Thank you
