According to the information found in this link http://www.nursingmidwiferyboard.gov.au/Registration-and-Endorsement/International/Accreditation-requirements-of-the-qualification-assessment-model.aspx under 'Qualifications that are unlikely to meet the accreditation requirements' Malta is one of the listed countries that are unlikely to meet the requirements for criterion 2 and 3. Therefore, since my boyfriends' diploma was obtained from the University of Malta, there is that doubt that it may not meet the requirement for Australian registration.On the other hand the top-up degree he successfully completed was obtained from the University of Derby, UK, which may give some advantage in these circumstances. Maybe anyone knows of a case where at least the top-up degree was from the UK and his diploma is from another unlikely eligible country and managed to get registration without a bridging course?

Hi Guys, was seeing the thread and thought of raising my concern over here after exhausting internet searches. My boyfriend and I are planning to move to Aus by applying for Visa 190. He is a nurse with a Diploma in nursing from the University of Malta and a top-up degree from University of Derby. He is in the process of compiling documentation to apply for registration. However, one of our main concerns, is whether with these qualifications and 3 years working experience he is required to undertake the Bridging course in Aus, first due to time he has to spend there to complete it and secondly cos it's quite costly...would rly appreciate if anyone has some kind of info or experiences to share Thanks
