Hello everyone! Looks like there will be quite a number of Filipinos in the batches that will follow mine here in VCHN! Our class of 40 is composed of only 3 Filipinos. There are 2 from Zimbabwe and the rest are Indian. It's all a mix of people applying for registration to different states.

How's the BP kiwifruit?

Hi hotpotato. did you also receive a letter of offer from vchn?

@jessegurl - The BP is okay, it's nothing that we weren't taught yet in school, just a refresher and an introduction to the Australian way of Nursing. This week we were made to do a paper on Nursing Ethics, and some group work (paper + oral report) on Indigenous Australians. Another paper is due this Friday on an article about Nursing.

@hotpotato101 - You can ask me, but I'm not allowed to make PMs yet. Better ask here for the benefit of all, I guess. :)

where are you staying kiwifruit? do you have any idea if it's reasonable to grab the school's accommodation package since i don't have a family/relative there. Many thanks. :)

Hi, is there anyone considering to take the bridging program in Adelaide??? It is the same NBV approved 12 weeks program offered by Uni Balarath through William Light Institute in Adelaide. As I understand, the living expenses will be much cheaper in Adelaide.

Hi there guys, newbie here. I've been following this thread and been back reading since this morning :)

Hope someone can answer my query. Of all the schools/institutions offering BP in Victoria, which ones are accepting overseas nurses without experience? I tried looking for the list of accredited BP providers on NBV's website but it seems that it was already removed (or maybe I just missed it?). I planned on contacting them one by one but without the list I dunno where to start.

Thanks a bunch!

What can I say google, google, google, research, research research

here is the the link: http://www.nbv.org.au/c/document_library/get_file?p_l_id=10327&folderId=12728&name=DLFE-108.pdf

BTW to use the word batch in english usual refers to something off a production line,

groups of people who study together are usually considered, a group or cohort.

Batch reminds me of chickens.

Oh fudge! Looks like the work statement document causes much of the delay to several applicants. I am to receive the eligibility letter soon. Don't worry Jakey, it only takes a week for them to reply if you have outstanding documents. I am sure you will also receive the letter of approval soon.
