New grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand Part 2

Published

Due to recent changes regarding applications for International nurses to Australia and the combining of the nursing boards to one central nursing board in Australia AHPRA I have started a new thread for people to discuss the new process on working in Australia.

Currently New Zealand is not accepting new applicants from International trained nurses except those that meet the Trans Tasman Mutual Recognition Agreement {TTMR} this will be updated once the New Zealand nursing board reopen their books to International nurses.

Part 1 thread New grad Filipino nurse wanting to work in Australia/New Zealand - Nursing for Nurses

Nurses, I submitted my application to CON last weekend and until now still no reply. This is really insane. The officer who is responsible to help enrollees is on leave until the 15th.

Like I said earlier, why dont you try other schools? Melbourne is a popular choice and there are many schools there to choose from. If only I have my LOE now i would choose to stay in melbourne cause my cousin from sydney told me lots of great things about that city :) If budget is your concern it's still up to you to manage your money there, important thing is you finish your BP and have a job. The earlier the better :) God bless you on your journey!just be patient and you will find the best BP school for you, just widen your options :)

Hi Blicka!

I think I was just blessed because after I got the early exit, then applied for registration, my registration came out really fast (say about a week). And then I applied to every single position posted in the internet. And it was not that long till I got a call as well.

i hope i can be like you too.

Can anyone help me out please? I've been searching for BP providers in ACT (which is quite near NSW) including their websites and course fees. I know that the providers are ACT Health and Victorian College of Health & Nursing. Would you happen to know how much is the fee in each institution and their websites? Hoping you guys can help me cos I need to enroll asap. I got my letter from AHPRA already and CON really has a lot of applicants. Thank you!

Hey marky VCHN is now IHNA. 11500AUD. In ACT my colleague applied but they have no plans at present to offer international residents nurse places for 2012.

aila dear i think you should contact them to get a slot instead cos they fill up fast. they are usually fast when you submit their requirements. they will schedule you for a skype interview after a few days. if the interview is well you will receive your offer letter in a day or two. then etc.

Hello shiey!

Actually I dont know yet the answer to your question regarding budget in UniSA because the only thing I know is the tuition fee.hehe I'm still on the process of applying so it would be better if you consult IDP Makati (call them), they are all very accommodating :)

oh okay..hehe! so how much is the tuition? tha'st a 6-mo program right?

uhm, the thing is i would really want visit the idp office in makati but im not physically in Phils as of the moment. do they have a website i can scan through just to get basic idea? thanks!
