bridging course for nurses in only what 2 months or so? after that let us say, 3-4 months you can find a job as a nurse. nurses are paid very well here depending on experience like me for 6-7 years experience nasa 36aud/ hr plus penal rates. after 1 year if on my own, 189 pwdi na mag apply for p.r. if 190, employer sponsored then after 2 years.
and all the while being paid.. whereas yung sa option mu, you will be the one paying tuition and living expenses.
also even let say on a student visa you can work and find work.. part time is only 20 hrs per week minimum wage.
it's really a no-brainer. i have been in oz and nz for a couple of years also i do not see the advantages talaga of studying in a foreign country unless you were born/ raise here and have citizenship on hand in terms of landing employment.
education as further studies like master's/ post graduate certificate IF YOU ARE ALREADY IN AU WORKING yan ang may advantage for promotion and career advancement.
but pre-employment.. plus point siguro pang-perfume sa resume but costly and not really an assurance of getting a job. just my 2 cents.
maganda lang sa papel (resume) if you decide to go home na you have studied abroad but if you are seeking to live here permanently..i say work experience in other 1st world country, pinas and local have more bearing than where you attain your education.
