Hi all,

is there anyway of studying the diploma online in sydney with local placement? I need to stay working f/t with regular mortgage repayments and so forth. The gctafe has been discussed, but I am not sure if the local.unis will recognise the course and give the 1 year credit.

I have completed the hsc but haven't done any work directly in this industry, but I do work at a private hospital in a back room office.

also what are the chances of me getting in without any certs or work experience in this industry?

Thanks for any advice

The course in question through GCIT is a nationally recognised course. Most Uni's will give you one year s credit off of the Degree in nursing. In my search only Qld offers the Dip in Nursing via distance ( didnt look at WA or NT though lol). Brisbane Tafe also offers it but it is more expensive.  I believe you should get in no worries, just call and ask if you wish to clarify. There is an Oct enrollment coming up. Apply by end Sept. You will be able to do yoyr placement in your area too unless u are very isolated then you may have to travel.
