Hi Everyone

I want to do the Diploma in Adelaide. I will apply through Tafe but competition is high so looking at other options if i dont get accepted.

Can anyone tell me where else you can train for the course? I know of Careers Australia which offer vet fee help. And also RDNS, there's is $7000 and one day a week attendance which would suit me but i dont have $7000!

Careers is $13,800 and offer vet fee help so no upfront costs but they want you to come in 2-3 days per week. i can only do one, i need to still work and support myself.

Anyone know of anywhere else in SA you can do it?

Thanks:)

Hey,
I ended up going with rdns as I found all of them other then Tafe were around the same price.
If u work in the industry u can get some money bk from the govt.
Some Other places u could look into would be
Celtic (they do it over 12months so worked out too expensive for me to pay bk that quickly)
Anmfsa (aus nursing midwifery federation sa), they have an info session on 22nd of march and have courses starting may and June and do it two days a wk
Equals international, they do it full time and part time which I liked cos doing it part time would have given me longer to pay the course, they have one starting in April, full time was two days a wk.
Not sure of other places but as rdns is hugely done online there's no emphasis on buying textbooks it's purely optional so I figure its cheaper then places that require the textbooks.
I ruled out careers aus cos I can't justify spending twice as much as other places plus I have a friend that is going through them and she has spent an extra grand on textbooks which I just can't afford.
Hope this has helped :)
Tracey

Thanks Tracey for the info, i didnt know about a few of them. So i guess RDNS dont let you use vet-fee help? I cant afford to pay of 7 grand unfortunately. Anyway ill look up the others you mention,thanks:)
