Bridging Program/ IRON Program

Hello po. May I ask sino po dito nag avail ng free PTE exam and review ng Philman? I availed their offer and luckily passed the exam. However, they are not very consistent with keeping in touch with their clients. Im a bit worried about the agreement Ive signed with their company indicating I have to pay 70k if I withdraw my application with them. Who among here have the same situation with mine? Thank you

Hi, I’m new here. I just finished my contract sa Saudi and I am preparing for my PTE, also, I am planning to apply for a job here in PH habang inaasikaso po papeles, ask ko lang po if ever, pano un if mauna yung submission ng papers sa AHPRA tapos nakahanap ako work, pano siya idedeclare sa work experience? Thanks po sa sasagot.

@tnrn If you find a job while on process for AHPRA registration, no need to update. After all AHPRA just requires the basic 450 hours of recency of practice within the past 5 years. Also your PRC COGS is required and AHPRA does not expect you to quit your current job while on process.

@cucci bale sa gap na lang po ilagay kahit magkawork ako habang pinoprocess sa ahpra? Iniisip ko din po kasi baka makaapekto yung length of time na hindi ako magpractice ng profession.

Hi newbie here. Ano po ba ang gagawin once na receive ko na yung LOE ko from AHPRA?

My LOE was sent to my agent and my agent forwarded it to me. My agent sent me a template of acceptance for refusal and willingness to proceed to bridging , and told me to send it to my R.O once i received the email of my LOE from them(AHPRA R.O). I was not able to receive any email from AHPRA for my LOE. My agent told me wait and that my R.O will email me personally a copy of my LOE but until now I was not able to hear anything from my R.O. How long do I have to wait for my R.O to message me? I received my LOE first week of August

Can I just ask if AHPRA is very particular with the number of bed capacity in the nursing hospital experience? What is their required number of bed capacity? Thank you

cucci

@tnrn Ang basic requirement lang naman for recency of practice is 450 hours within the last 5 years... that's roughly 3 months full time... so no worries

cucci

@aixirtap If you get an LOE already yun na po yun. Kung tama pagkatanda ko bago yang LOE nag email na ang AHPRA na your qualifications are not suitable for registration and you were given the option to appeal or withdraw the application so you can be referred to a BP. If you get the LOE na, meaning nag withdraw ka na ng application no need to email the RO for another LOE.

What you can do now is to look for a school with approved BP and enrol.

cucci

@skinnyjoyce No specific requirement for bed capacity po. That is more of an issue for a prospective employer.

@cucci thank you. I am already applying for SCU's EPIQ in Gold Coast. My first option was to take BP in Sydney but sadly ACN is full , so thus ACFE, and ETEA's BP is on revision. I was not able to find schools in Sydney that offers BP for the rest of this year. My agent adviced me to take BP in SCU this October. Coz if I will wait for next year's intakes baka po daw ma i.expire na yung LOE ko before i could even finish the BP

Thank you po. @cucci

@bizzy that's the sad news i received yesterday. Wla nang slots foR october intake sa scu. Im still searching for other schools that could offer BP this year

Hello guys, question lang po sa mga mag llodge pa lang ng registration sa ahpra, yong forms/letter po ba na criteria 2 is yon ung isusubmit sa school for school documents? ung criteria 2 letter po ba sa ched ba isusubmit or sa prc? medjo naguguluhan po kasi ako. salamat po sa mga sasagot 🙂

cucci

@Akijo Kung tutuusin di naman kailangan na sana yung forms na yun kasi di naman mag fall under sa Criteria 2 ang mga nursing graduates ng Pinas. But for the sake of compliance lalo na sa mga RO na mabusisi we have no choice but comply. From school at CHED po ang mga docs na yun at hindi sa PRC.

Akijo

@cucci thank you po, bali po ung criteria 2 is sa school ko ipasa upon request ng documents then ung criteria 3 po is pag magpapa CAV na po ako sa ched? ganun po ba yong process non? salamat po ulit

cucci

@Akijo

Please see below to see explanation on Criterion 2 and 3. AFAIK and as far as I can remember, no need to undergo CAV from CHED, although I am not sure what the school did to the documents I requested because they were already sealed in an envelop when handed to me for mailing.

<a href="https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/registration-and-endorsement/international/accreditation-requirements-of-the-qualification-assessment-model.aspx">https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/registration-and-endorsement/international/accreditation-requirements-of-the-qualification-assessment-model.aspx</a>

Criteria 2 and 3 of the qualification assessment model require that your education institution and program of study were accredited during the period of time that you studied. The NMBA’s specific requirements for criteria 2 and 3 are set out below.

Criterion 2

The education institution where you studied was externally accredited during the period when you undertook your studies.

That is, during the time you studied your education institution must have been:

subject to regular review by an external quality assurance agency and

registered or accredited by that agency.

Criterion 3

Your program of study was externally accredited and provided successful graduates with a qualification in nursing/midwifery.

That is, during the time you undertook your program of study:

the program of study must have been subject to regular review within a system of external accreditation implemented by the relevant nursing and/or midwifery regulatory authority or agency and

the program of study must have been accredited or recognised by that authority or agency and

the system of external accreditation included the application of accreditation standards specific to nursing and midwifery education that are comparable to the current nursing and midwifery accreditation standards and system in Australia.

Information about the accreditation system and standards for nursing and midwifery education in Australia, including links to relevant documents, is published on the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) website.

If your education institution or program of study were not subject to the type of regular external review described above, your qualification will not meet the qualification requirements.

AHPRA has conducted research into nursing and midwifery qualifications awarded by education institutions in a number of countries to establish whether or not they are likely to meet the accreditation requirements. The outcome of this research is described below.

We are continuing to conduct research on nursing and midwifery qualifications issued by education institutions in countries that are not listed below. We will update the information to include qualifications issued by education institutions in other countries as it becomes available.

The categories below do not apply to qualifications where the education institution and/or education program are subject to a system of regular external review by an agency operating outside the country where the applicant studied.

Pano po ung sa docs sa school? Ung uni ko po kc hindi daw ng kekeep ng records ng pharmacological syllabus bali course description lang po ang mabibigay sa akin. Salamat po sa sasagot 🙂

cucci

@akijo To be frank, hindi naman po kapanipaniwala na walang record ang school ng mga documents like syllabus. Unless... halimbawa nasunugan, binaha or other fortuitous events in which nawala na ang records. But again, it is quite extreme na walang backup or a copy somewhere. In most cases, may copy nyan ang Registrar, ang office of the Dean pati na rin ang Academic Affairs Office.

Curious lang, kelan ka po nag graduate?

Akijo

Yon nga din actually po ang dilemma ko, imposible talaga na wala silang copy hays.. Naka usap ko po yong isang instructor sa department of nursing sa uni namin, ang sabi nya po sa akin wala na daw sila copy kasi 2007 pa ako graduate tapos ang meron na lang daw po na copy nila is year 2015 to present. Nakaka frustate kasi kelan pa talaga pabalik pabalik ung pinakiusapan ko na tao sa school. 🙁
