Hi Lisa, We too moved here in December and are currently living in Huntingdale, just round the corner from both you and Broadbeanio and would love a meet up! We have 3 boys (9,8,4). If you fancy a meet up send me a PM and we can arrange something.

yea I've been looking at these & they really seem to be the most appropriate route, however looking on various nursing forum sites in OZ, they are also the preferred choice for NQ Ozzy nurses & are highly competative. They specifically say you must not have worked anywhere as a registered nurse. I've also found out QLD health do a Transition to Practice Nurse Education Programs ( TPNEP) http://www.health.qld.gov.au/nursing/transition.asp may also give that a go if gratuate programme applications are unsucsessful. That just QLD health though. I'm looking around at NSW health to see what they are offerring NQ nurses.

Crickey this really is not straight forward. I'm a student nurse in the UK & will shortly be qualified. Does anyone know what the next stages are? I already have my PR visa as my OH is a welder. Can I just apply for registration straight away with AHPRA or do I need to be assessed by ANMC? Has anyone else gone straight over to OZ after qualifing?
