hello po. Meron ba dito nag-aaral o nag-enroll sa University of Notre Dame? I just need a feedback regarding sa school. They were saying it is the hardest / toughest school daw for nursing.

@cheng1003 Register sa AHPRA then apply for skills assessment sa ANMAC. After ng Skills assessment, pwede ka ng apply for EOI then wait to be invited. Keep in mind din kung kelan magexpire visa mo at ano plan mo just in case di mo matapos lahat to before your visa expires.

Afaik, with regard to AHPRA registration for conversion course ay parang nag take din lang ng regular nursing course... not that sure though pero in most cases, the school will forward your credentials to AHPRA and you can process the application via online...
https://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Registration-and-Endorsement/Forms.aspx
Online applications
Online applications for registration as a nurse and/or midwife are available to:
Kung may mga hihingin man na docs, in most cases, yun na rin yung mga dati mong na-submit... again not sure kse di man po ako dumaan ng nursing conversion course.
For ANMAC:

Hi
I need advice po. I'm already a permanent resident here in Australia thru Spouse visa. Naging busy sa moving around and having a baby ngayon lang ako maka focus on converting my nursing registration. I got here December 2015, I was clinical instructor in Philippines before I got here then worked in aged care from 2016 til now. Nag aalala ako na hindi na ako papasa sa recency of practice.
Any advice kung ituloy ko pa ba mag pa assess? Kung tatawag ako sa AHPRA ma aadvice ba nila kung may chance pa ako makapasa sa assessment to do OBA?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance...

I am not sure if your experience in aged care can be considered for the 450 hour recency of practice requirement and from that hindi ka rin mabigyan ng LOE for OBA.
Of course, AHPRA would be the best source of answer to your question... andito ka na rin lang naman, it won't hurt to give them a call.

@joyjen Hi, yung experience in Aged Care will not be counted. Yung experience lang as RN ang makacount. Okay ang service ng call centre nila sa AHPRA.

Naisip namin ngayon, mag student visa ulit pero si partner naman main applicant to buy some time. RN siya sa Pinas pero Certificate III in Individual Support inaral niya dito. Ano po yun course na maganda niya kunin? Medyo nakaka kaba din yun student visa lately dami na ddeny lalo na Bachelor last inaral niya sa Pinas.
If ever naman na mapasa ko PTE by March. So maging 85 points. May pag asa na kaya ma invite yan sa NSW 190?
Or wag na po ba ako umasa na mainvite sa Sydney and lipat na talaga ng ibang state? Like mag 491? If ever, anong state po kaya? Kasi sa VIC nabasa ko minimum 2 years ang work experience. Eh 1.5 years palang po ako as Aged Care RN. Thank you sa mga sasagot! God bless.

Have you tried asking your employer for sponsorship? Of course, at first 482 might be offered but since you've been with them for a while a 186 Direct Entry may be possible... still a lot better than going back into student visa.

Cost and locations for the MCQ exam
The MCQ exam is computer-based and will be delivered at test centres in most countries. There will be separate exams for IQNMs seeking registration as a registered nurse, enrolled nurse or midwife:
Registered nurses will sit the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). The National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) develops and administers the NCLEX-RN through Pearson VUE test centres.
Midwives will sit an MCQ exam managed by the NMBA, which will be delivered through Aspeq test centres.
Information for on the enrolled nurse MCQ exam will be published soon.
Note: IQNMs must be authorized by Ahpra to sit the MCQ exams.
Fees for the MCQ exams are set by the providers and paid directly to them. At the time of publishing, the following fees apply:
For registered nurses, the NCLEX-RN registration fee is $200 USD, plus an additional international scheduling fee of $150 USD ($350 USD in total).
For midwives, the fee is $165 NZD, plus a possible fee for overseas venues.
Enrolled nurse exam fees will be published soon.
Cost and locations for the OSCE
IQNMs who have been referred to the OBA must pass the MCQ exam before they can attempt the OSCE.
The OSCE is managed by Ahpra and will be delivered at Adelaide Health Simulation in Adelaide, South Australia.
The fee for sitting the OSCE is $4,000 AUD. The OSCE fee replaces previous bridging program fees from private providers. This fee pays for Ahpra’s costs in running and maintaining the OSCE. Ahpra and the NMBA are funded only by fees, which must cover all costs of assessing IQNMs for registration in Australia.

which state po kau? get in touch with AECC global- they assist with conversion courses. my sis was assisted by them last year (melbourne office) , they dont charge anything (pay for exact tuition to the school and visa to immi services only - no single $ is wired to the agency). very quick in responses and service. My sister enrolled in Deakin (ending conversion this Sep). La trobe was also an option during that time.
This is the link - if ur in AU call them and schedule for appointment.
Meron din sila office sa Pinas. Goodluck! https://www.aeccglobal.com.au/contact-us/
