Meeting APHRA requirements as an International Registered Nurse in Saudi Arabia

Published

Hi everyone,

I am in the initial process of the applying as a registered nurse in Australia. I am currently working in Saudi Arabia and I have been registered as a Nurse Technician in the Saudi Council.

My questions are:

1. Does Australia accept a registered Nurse Technician? Or do I have to upgrade my title to a Nurse Specialist?

2. Do they accept the Certificate of Good Standing that says it was electronically sent? i received my Certificate of Good Standing from the Saudi Council by email and below it, it says that it was only valid if viewed or downloaded from the link they provided. Did others receive the same certificate?

Hoping for a reply and help...

Thank you!!
