Is practical nursing a hard study?

Can an American Assistant in Nursing, study for Certification III in Aged Care in Australia?

  • I'm a Certified Nursing Assistant in America. (Which is the American equivalent of an Assistant in Nursing or Personal Care Assistant in Australia.) I finished training and have a years of working experience as a Certified nursing Assistant. I'll be entering Australia on a Working Holiday Visa (subclass 462.) On my visa I'm allowed to study for up to 4 months. The program itself is under 4 months long. So, I was wondering; could I study for my Certification III in Aged Care at a TAFE program? Do you have to be an Australian citizen or just have a visa that allows you to study? Thanks for reading the question. Answers would be greatly appreciated. Have a great day!

    I believe you can but if you are hoping the certificate will help you gain entry to Australia permantly it wont sorry.

Am sure that you will be able to study at TAFE, however it will cost you a lot more than it costs an Australian citizen. This is due to the fact that the Aussies and their parents have paid taxes. (Well, supposedly :) )

Davion, from what I know, you visa is to allow you to work and or study, to then gain PR, you can't, but stranger things have happen, if once you qualify, you approach the department of immigration with all your documentation, both US accreditation and Australian.
