Bridging Program in Australia

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'm new here. I just received an email from AHPRA with a referral to take the bridging program. I have made inquiries in several AHPRA accredited schools in Victoria and am currently waiting to hear from them. I know it seems too tight but I am gunning for January or February 2018 intake. Does anyone here have suggestions which schools I should consider? Thanks in advance!

    Most of the places in Melbourne have their ANMAC approval dates expiring in Feb / Mar 2018.

    SO nobody will offer seat for BP in 2018 since they have to renew their accreditation status.

    At the moment, Only ACN sydney has their accreditation till Nov 2018 and offering intakes for 2018 till Nov.

    Please check with ACN as I jus got seat for their April 2018 INtake.
