Heard of ANSM Consultancy- Australian Nurse, Student and Migration Consultancy?

[sjgc13]

I attended the seminar of this Consultancy last March 13. A friend of mine just texted me about the seminar. As much as I liked the idea that the Consultancy presented, I am kind of skeptical about this Consultancy. I also have been trying to research about them but I couldn't find anything. I was also not satisfied with the way the seminar was conducted. They had a powerpoint presentation which was more about Australia (places, tourist attractions, wildlife, etc), instead of discussing the process itself. I was also a little disappointed because they did not give us a copy of the breakdown of expenses to be paid and when we are supposed to pay it. Also, they failed to provide us with an outline or instructions on the steps that we would undergo. But they did tell us that they are just going to send these to out emails. I did receive the email yesterday, but still I just want to make sure that this is legitimate.

If anyone could give me any feedback about this Consultancy, it would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I would like to ask our moderators if there is a way to check if a Consultancy is legitimate? Are they also registered in the POEA (Philippine Overseas & Employment Agency) just like Recruitment Agencies? Because someone told me that since they do not give "job offers" they are not registered in the POEA, is that right?

Thank you very much for all of your help! God Bless!!!

to answer a few questions.

for the program I am using you do not need experience, for all the others you do. This is one reason why I chose this one and it is suitable for many more nurses. Experience is also ok this way as it does save money and time.

Material is supplied for review once you apply.

to Uh_huh

Most of the study is done in the Philippines, online (internet study or tests one in Phils and one in Aus - the clinical) only the clinical is done in Australia. Yes you are enrolled in a university for the course but because it is a short course it does not qualify for a visa that allows you to work until you are registered. This takes 4-6 weeks from arrival. You need to be able to support yourself for this period and the consultancy I use provides accommodation and food during the first period until registration.

Again they provided a mass of study material and I did not need to do any research.

good luck to all Australia looks very good now for me

Study modules are conducted by a university but because they are online you do not do them in Australia. your clinical module is in Australia and you cannot work until you are registered.

Review material is provided for preparation for the tests, it is only if you do not pass a module on the test then you need to take the study module and all relevant material for your studies are provided by the university.

no experience needed this way, other options are offered with experience but this one is still the best with or without experience.

See You in Aus

1 Australian dollar = 43.2166399 Philippine pesos

$8500 * 43 = Php 365,500

That is a huge amount of money for a one shot deal. Better pass those exams. It cannot be taken for granted. I would like for those who are in the process to update this post. An agency can only proven or reliable if one actually has been able to go there successfully.

sally22, i've sent you a pm! thanks!

[sally22]

oops sorry about the posting of contact information, just followed what I saw others doing. Very new at this forum.

Also for gemini_star, yes this is a lot in pesos and unfortunately it is not for everyone but for those who can afford it will save you at least this amount and more compared to the other options and Bridging courses. Better study hard and do well, but another way of looking at it is the lost income for every month you are not overseas, it is between 4-5000 dollars. That is a lot to lose and I am looking forward to earning soon.

It will not be long now.

hi! In connection with this post re ANSM. It would really be a great, great help if one can really testify that they had taken both the exams A&B and passed. and is Already in Australia.

AUD8,500.00 .... is no joke at all.

Good luck Guys!

I'd like to attend one of the information seminars of the consultancy mentioned...does anybody know how i can attend or if i can have contact/website information on them so i can contact them directly?

thanks in advance

Please do not post contact information here, just do a Google search on the company.

And as another poster mentioned above, still have not seen one person come here and post that is actually working in Oz now and thru this company.

Dear gemini_star this is a full process. if you do not pass any of the 4 elements in the test you do them as study modules in the Philippines (online) this saves a lot of expenses and time. When you pass the modules then you go to Australia. So failing the test is not the end of it like th USA

The consultancy offers assistance with understanding the modules and contact with a clinical instructor if you need guidance.

It is up to you to study of course but the pass for the modules is only a pass/fail not a high mark required. if we cannot achieve a pass fail mark then perhaps a different career choice is needed for us. I am sure all the Filipino nurses can pass this at least by the modules if not the test. Lets show them what we can do and live that life in Australia we all dream about.

this dream can come true and we all know there is little work available it the Philippines for nurses. Way too many for the positions available

I cannot post the details to contact them but if you send me a message i will respond
