Q: Australian nurse license application procedure.

A: After the PRN course, you can apply for an Australian nurse's license directly without examination. Applicants must first register their education and language with the Australian Nursing Council and obtain the qualification assessment (the assessment cycle is 4-6 weeks), and then apply for a registered nurse's license at the Nurse Registration Committee, the nurse supervision agency where they want to work (the application cycle is 10- 16 weeks).

There are 6 continents and 2 regions in Australia, and each continent and region has its own nurse management organization. If a nurse wants to do nursing work in a certain area, she must register or become a nurse in that area.

In addition, the nurse management agencies in various administrative regions also recognize the registration standards. Therefore, after a nurse becomes a registered or registered nurse in one region, she can obtain the same registration or registration qualification and start working in other regions by simply applying.

Q: The comparison between OET and IELTS.

A: As a professional medical English, OET is a highly specialized English training, and all courses are taught based on hospital work. As a general English, IELTS belongs to practical English training. Their training objects and goals are different.

The Australian Immigration Bureau officially announced last year that students with OET scores do not need to take the IELTS test, and OET can replace IELTS scores as English scores for studying abroad, nurse registration and nurse evaluation. The evaluation method is: four C's in OET are equal to IELTS 6, and four B's in OET are equal to IELTS 7. ?

1. If this exam is BBCC, you only need to take 2 C subjects in the next exam, and you don't need to take 4 more.

2. Compared with CGFNS exam, you can go to Australia whether you pass the OET exam or not. If you pass the OET exam, you can directly enter Australian hospitals to participate in clinical practice, register nurses and work immigrants; If you fail the OET exam, you can go to Australia to be an assistant nurse and participate in the training of registered nurses in Australia.

3. Very professional, very helpful for future work.

The disadvantages of OET:

1. Without the IELTS question bank, you can't guess the questions (IELTS is currently changing the examination method, making it more difficult to guess the questions).

2. Training places are few and training fees are expensive.

3. The examination fee is relatively expensive, 550 Australian dollars.

4. Listening is more difficult.

Q: To what extent can OET help immigrants?

A: For nurses who want to obtain Australian status, China nurses only need to pass the OET exam and the evaluation of the Australian Medical Association, and then go to Australia to attend the training course of the Nursing College after graduation exam (the time is about 4-6 months), so that nurses can really obtain the Australian vocational qualification certificate, thus starting their own high-paying overseas work process and finally obtaining the right of abode.

It can be seen that it is a shortcut for China nurses to take the OET exam and finally go to work in Australia, and the process is relatively simple-pass the OET exam, attend training courses, and then obtain the qualification of professional nurses, work and emigrate. This simple and clear process has great advantages for overseas applicants.

Moreover, due to the shortage of registered nurses, the immigration trial cycle is only about 6 months. As long as the nurses who have obtained the vocational qualification certificate apply within 6 months after the end of the training course, there is no problem in obtaining the approval of the application for settlement. Registered nurse is a 60-point occupation, and the shortage of occupations adds points. As long as nurses pass the OET exam and obtain the professional qualification certificate, they can easily reach the immigration passing line 120 stipulated by the Australian Immigration Department, and successful immigration is easy.

In a word, OET, as a professional language test recently introduced into China, is a stepping stone for all nurses who want to get job opportunities in Australia. Along the road of OET examination, training in Australia, obtaining professional nurse qualification certificate, employment and finally settling in Australia, OET will become the paving stone for the majority of China nurses to work in Australia.
