Hi everyone, please help me.
I graduated last march 2007 here in the Philippines and I have my license here already.
Because of oversupply of nurses here, it's too difficult to find a job.
That's why I'm looking forward to working in Australia or New Zealand.
However, I'm confused. Esp about Australia.
I already have my bachelors degree here.
When I go there in Aus to work as RN, must I take a diploma in nursing first? can I work while studying?
After obtaining my diploma there, am I already a registered nurse?
Thank you!
@ryan so expect it around dec 1? but reading back on the forum it seems that you sent yours it long time ago. Is the processing time still the same time frame now?
Do they like i read on the forum send an acknowledgement letter like QNC and is that what i am waiting for ? Or is it the assessment they send right ahead ?
thats my time frame...as it is always be on a case to case basis...meaning only the nbv can tell you how long would be the assessment is, because we dont know they might ask you addtional documentations to support your qualification (hope it wont happen)...so just persevere, im sure the assessment will be positive. :)
e.g other assessments took three months others just two months.
My letter says:
"Please provide evidence of successful completion of an english language test by december 2009. if QNC does not receive and english test result by december 09 it will be taken that you do not wish to continue. "
Does this mean anytime within December 09 or by December 01, 2009?
I just got my letter, although it arrived at the post office on September 30, 2009.
It also says I should "demonstrate nursing competence through an approved process, to comply with section 54(4) of the Nursing Act 1992."
Is this the Part B? The one that we will take in QLD?
Thanks!
Hi! I'm a newbie here.. Just want to share that I'll be attending the bridging program at Curtin this coming feb 2010. I noticed that only a few nurses are going the WA route.. I know It's kinda expensive and long but I think it's all worth it. I'm just waiting for my visa. I don't have any experience so It was quite a shock to me that i got accepted..Prayers do help a lot :) Well, hoping I could meet someone who is going to Curtin like me;)

anytime within december. although i suggest you take your ielts as soon as possible so that you have room for error. meaning, just in case you won't pass the first take , you can take another one since the ielts is given monthly. take november, so god forbid you fail it, you have another take on december and this time you already have an experience.
