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.

Oh my goodness! Good luck kailian (just in case you speak the dialect). I`m from Dizon Subdivision. Wait I`m gonna try to DM you.
yay!!! were going to be classmates!! yup I did mine at nationwide, Everything was done with 5 hours.. so it was fast.. yup bring the forms for the x-ray and medicals. bring your passport also... and bring the letter from the embassy.. they would ask it from you.
Yes I have started the online course but I still have a looooong way to go... you? are you done with the online course?
are you and faithmartel from manila? do you guys want to meetup or something?
hey patringrn,
were you able to know the results of your medicals as well yesterday? you had to wait for 5hours? oh, so aside from the forms, the scanned passport and hap id, i have to bring the printed email from the immigration as well. thank you for this.
not yet done hehehe. we're on the same boat. will finish the medicals first then focus on the ecourse. what topic are you at now?
faith is from cebu :) yup, we can meet up someday soon :)
HELLO Guyz! Has anybody here who tried applying or finished doing the bridging program at mercy health training institute? can you give me some feedbacks...Thanks in advance :)
hey guys, how long before you got your LOE through mail? i have been waiting for more than a week now, and am wondering how long does it really take...waaaah!
Please help me out. About the first page of Agos40 form, at which portion can we put our signature? ive read from the previous threads that we are to sign both first and last pages of agos 40 forms. Im just confused at which part of the first page since there's no signage or label as to where we should affix our signature unlike the last page which has clear indication.
thank you!
I placed my signature ONLY at the consent part, page 8. :)
in my opinion ahpra will be issuing a statement if there will be such kind of changes. as to the said rumor, i also heard of the same grapevine when i was about to take my ielts around june last year (that it is going to take effect by september last year)> i haven't heard any confirmation from ahpra regarding this matter so i think the 7.0 will still apply. to make sure that indeed there is no truth in the said rumor, better make an inquiry about it with ahpra, which you can do via email.
...........ARNTP is actually a recognized bridging program by AHPRA. We are currently 23 in class and majority are filipinos. For my tuition fee, i paid 14,200 dollars ...... Actually i have my classmates now who are not yet assessed by AHPRA but they were admitted by the uni. You just have to have 7 or higher ilets score and two years minimum experience.
I was able to back read this Nov 18 post. Since it is possible to get the course w/o APHRA initially and now that the program has finished, when did these nurses get their AHPRA assessment? And is this actually advisable, meaning to have AHPRA assessment during or after the bridging? TIA
i received the below mail from ahpra, and was confused because i already sent them my tor and course description and letter of reference. i haven't practiced my nursing profession for 2 years so i understand that the reference letter i should be securing would be from my last nursing experience right? thank you!!
