BTW, any one heard about ETEA or Nurse bank(the previous name)? any comments?

Does any one know could 676 transfer to other VISA like 457? I'm going to undertake the pre-registration course prior registered in Nursing Board of Victoria. The education provider ETEA suggests apply for 676 or 456, the Immigration department said otherwise. The VISA condition on the website of Department of Immigration clearly said "no further stay". However, some friend says it could be wavied on special condition. Any successful case? or failed case? Thanks a lot! Alice

Hello, everyone I've been worried about choosing nursing school of Australia for a long time, BSN program (Pre-registration) can anyone give me some tips? thanks a lot! Australian Catholic University (sydney) University of Newcastle University of South Australia Flinders University From my friend's suggestion: the city is the most important, like Sydney,Melbourne, you can find job easily after graduted. As international student, which school is better? Is there anything we should pay particular attention in choosing schools or cities? Thank you !

Hi, Suzanne Is it ok for me to study/work in another country while my immi process is on the way? I couldn't just wait for the visa but do nothing in China, since it would take too long for waiting. Is there any problem with Police Clearance certificate released by the country I'm going?

Hi suzanne, It's so glad to hear from you about the suggestion, you're so nice. Any way, I'm not sure whether you know some info of the education system in China, the most nurse students went to nursing school not after the high school graducation, but junior school. So we didn't own the high school diploma, but our nursing program was four years, for some cases, the first 2-year program can equivalent with the high school. Applying for the RNLEX is another problem for me, as you said, due to the retrogression, it will be more difficult. I would like to send you my resume later, but i don't have your e-mail address. I'm searching some information about the difference between working in China and been working in USA. maybe we'll talk it next time! hope you have a nice day, it's 8:00 pm here and i suppose it's midnight at USA, so, Have a good dream. :rotfl: Alice

Hi, Suzanne Thank you introduced me this forum after my post of self-introduction. There are so many useful information for me since I planned to working in USA, but what puzzled me was there were some agencies who provide mixed imformation for the nurse about go abroad. It makes me hard to make chose, like to take the CGFNS or NCLEX-RN exam. The agency suggested to take the NCLEX-RN,coz it save time and the most effective and quick way. you will spend same time to prepare the CGFNS or NCLEX, but after you take the CGFNS, you need to pass the NCLEX and gain the license, and now the immigration policy was not bright for overseas. There are many state can provide us the NCLEX with out CGFNS scores. Would you like to give me some suggestion? Thank you ! Alice :)
