Hello po, ask lang po ng advise what should I do best with my situation. I am here in Aus waiting for my PR grant before studying Nursing (have nurse experience in Pinas too) hoping I could get lesser tuition fee kasi nga PR na. With these APHRA changes coming, I am now confuse and reading lots of comments here that no more schools are accepting this year. Should I go and do my english exam to get started for next years intake? or wait for this year's changes? If you have PR is it also true you don't have to do english test? Hope someone can help. Thank you.

@jkk32w Too bad, as in sarado na lahat ng schools now. Yung Monash sana pag asa ko kaso ayun di ko naabutan. 🙁 I asked my acquaintances in AU pero yun nga din sabi sakin hold lahat ng schools now. May isa nagsabi na di na mag offer ng bridging. Yung exam na daw talaga implement by June 2019. Sana lang like UK din na CBT and OSCE, if ever na ganon mas better nga kesa mag aral. Pero accdg sa AHPRA sa nabasa ko parang 3 part yung exams tapos conditional pa rin.

@clea With BP, the fees are the same for PRs and International students. You can either wait til Mid of this year for the transition or study a 1yr Conversion course which is cheaper for PRs. You will still need to do an English test though for your registration.

@Cassey thank you very much for replying. And with conversion course is it available any Uni in Aus po? I haven't look into it as my option so no idea ako on that. tsk tsk and same requirements to submit at APHRA din? sorry po makulit ako.

Cassey

@clea Conversion is basically a shortened Bachelor of Nursing course. I’m pretty sure marami ang nagooffer ng course. The difference with BP is hindi mo na muna need magpaassess sa AHPRA prior to enrolment. As long as you meet the Uni’s requirements then you’re good to go. Once you finished the course, then dun magstart yung AHPRA registration process. I think lesser ang requirements but you’ll be needing it when you’re done so I suggest you prepare it now too. If you are a PR when you register as a nurse, you won’t need to undergo ANMAC Assessment.

Help guys. Im really infuriated with AHPRA now.

I already sent a Stat Dec, witnessed and signed by Philippine Embassy in Oman. And yet they consider it as unacceptable witness. It is weird that they accepted the first stat dec i made aboit other matter.

The stat dec that they refused was about the wrong middle name i mistakenly typed for Fit2work. It is already fixed and i sent the updated indentity. Ahpra requested a stat dec explaining the matter and that I am known ny my name only. And so i did. But here it is declined.

Here is their email to me.

Proof of identity

Please be advised that the statutory declaration you provided is unacceptable, as it is not witnessed by an approved party. We are unable to accept Philippine consular officials as witnesses of Commonwealth of Australia statutory declarations. Please resubmit the document ensuring it is signed by an approved witness. For further information on who can sign statutory declarations outside of Australia please see the following link: https://www.ag.gov.au/Publications/Statutory-declarations/Pages/Frequently-asked- questions.aspx#who

Please help.

@danjoe03 What is the counterpart of Notary Public in Oman? Since there is no Australian embassy located there, you can go to Notary Public.

Good morning fellow nurses! Happy new year!, I was offered a slot for BSN course here in SA and I applied for a credit transfer of our previous learnings, but they’re asking for a course syllabus/course outline, may I know if this is the same as course description? Thank you!

danjoe03

@Cassey I’ll look into that. I havent been to a notary public here. And from what ive read, it is goong to be in Arabic.

@pmac Hello po! Can you tell us more about the new program na papalit sa bridging? Gusto ko lang magka idea sana.. Kasi meron akong pending sa unisa pero september pa.. and if june or july better kasi mas maaga pero baka mas mahirap? Thank you!

anncabanig

@Cassey general nurse po inaapplyan q po, then pagdting q po dto s Saudi po naging dental assistant lng po aq mam cassy...

clea

@Cassey thank you so much medyo malinaw na sa akin ang Conversion program. Will start calling if which schools offer this program. at the same time waiting pa naman ako ng PR grant ko so other requirements muna uunahin ko. thanks again

Cassey

@anncabanig Nagexam ka ba and registered ka as RN sa Saudi?

Cassey

@clea No worries at all. Pwedeng maabutan mo rin yung papalit for BP which is quite similar to that of UK. Yan yung isa pa sa magiging option mo if ever.

@Cassey hi cassey! not sure if ikaw ung nag mention na u stated as enrolled nurse? and not doing the BP path. nag iisip kc ako for my sis if failed tlaga tong issue sa EPIQ/IRON program , wla na ibang choice kundi mag enrolled nurse. i work for a govt uni here in melbourne and it will be handy for me to enrol her in case for bach of nursing her, since shell be on the same campus as me and and we live close by. baka kc eto nlg way namin .,,
