I am searching for oversea countries such as UK, USA, Australia and NZ. Unfortunately, my country don't has a year course that lead to a certification.

I can't speak for the other countries but in the UK burns and plastic surgery courses are taught as part of a degree or masters program rather than as stand alone courses. There are usually entry requirements to these courses and one would be that you are a qualified nurse with NMC registration, therefore unless you go through the registration process with the nursing and midwifery council it is unlikely you would be accepted as a student on such a program.

Thanks Sharrie. BTW, do you have any idea which hospitals or universities in UK actually offered this course as part of their degree program?

Is there any burns or plastic trained nurses out here in this forum who can share with me where you were trained? Any nurses from Australia? Is plastic and burns nursing a combine course or they are separate course?:icon_roll
