Hi,
I desire to pursue a career in nursing starting with a diploma in enrolled nurse in one of the universities in New Zealand as international student but i need to understand certain things.
Firstly, Will be a able to apply for a work permit visa to work as enrolled nurse or get a sponsor?
secondly, if i decides to move on to study bachelors in nursing, how many more years will spend studying it.
Thirdly, where do i have a better chance of getting a job after study and building my career, Australia or New Zealand?
I will also appreciate a list of schools offering the course.
I will appreciate an advise and response.
Thanks in advance

You might want to try posting this on the International board. Most of us here are in the US. Not sure what a diploma enrolled nurse means in NZ. In the states, there are only a handful of diploma programs remaining. Most schools offer ASN or BSN degrees.

ENs are not on the skills shortage list. RN only.
