you said say you want to change your career to nursing but didn't mention what you've been doing so far....applying for a bsc while with a bsc always raise suspicions ...nevertheless,a very good statement of purpose highlighting why you want to go for a second degree in nursing should be helpful ..

The Central Bank of Nigeria yesterday sold the dollar at N358 to the Bureau De Change operators one naira above the N357 sold to the banks signifying an additional trouble for the street traders.

The apex bank also directed the BDC operators to add only N2 as their gain on top of the auction rate making it N360 a dollar.

The CBN released $8,000 per BDC weekly to sell as invisibles (Personnel Travel Allowance, Basic Travel Allowance and School and Medical Bills) to customers.

Some traders have told Daily Trust that the margin is too small to cover for their operations even as they commend the reduction of the rate.

[b][/b]TO WHO IT MAY CONCERN

Australia has “more than enough” doctors to meet its long-term needs and should remove all medical occupations from the Skilled Occupations List that is used to underpin independent applications for permanent residency, the AMA has said.

The Association has told a Federal Government review of the Skilled Occupation List that a surge in the supply of medical graduates in the past decade means the country is quickly shifting away from its reliance on international medical graduates (IMGs) to plug gaps in the workforce.

Instead, it has urged a shift in policy focus toward improving the distribution of doctors by encouraging locally trained practitioners to work in under-served specialties and locations.

The number of medical students has soared from 2004, when just 1500 graduated. It is expected that there will be 3700 medical graduates in 2018, and modelling by the now-defunct Health Workforce Australia indicated there could be an oversupply of practitioners by 2030.

The AMA said IMGs had played a critical role in helping fill gaps in the medical workforce caused by a past under-investment in medical schools, but that reliance was coming to an end with so many future doctors in the training pipeline.

Instead, it warned the country was in danger of wasting its substantial investment in undergraduate medical degrees because of a shortage of postgraduate training places.

HWA has predicted that, without a boost in funding for postgraduate training, there will be a shortage of 569 specialist training places a year by 2018, rising to a shortfall of 1011 places by 2030.

“Too many people think medical training ends at the university gates,” said AMA Vice President Dr Tony Bartone. “Policymakers and the public have failed to recognise the magnitude of the problem, and not enough effort is going into finding the required vocational training places.”

The AMA said the situation meant the country needed to reduce its reliance on skilled migration, and any short-term workforce needs could be met through other avenues of migration such as the 457 visa program and employer sponsored migration.

“The available data highlights a potential medical workforce oversupply, and shows that there are more than enough doctors in the medical training pipeline to meet our medium- to long-term medical workforce needs,” the Association said. “HWA recommended that the policy focus needs to shift towards encouraging locally trained doctors to work in the specialties and locations where they are needed, and we think this is the right approach.”

There are currently 33 medical occupations on the Skilled Occupation List, including GPs, surgeons, anaesthetists, cardiologists and oncologists, and the review of the List comes amid mounting political tension over skilled migration.

Last month the Government announced a crackdown on 457 visa holders, giving those who have lost their jobs just 60 days to find a new one or face deportation, down from 90 days. The change came just hours after prominent conservative Coalition backbencher George Christensen called for a total ban on 457 visas for central and northern Queensland.

But Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce has mounted a strong defence of 457 visas for foreign doctors.

Writing in the Guardian, Mr Joyce said that many rural areas relied on doctors working on 457 visas to provide vital health care because so many locally trained medical professionals chose to work in metropolitan areas.

“When a home grown workforce is either unavailable or reluctant to move to regional Australia, we don’t see 475 visa holders as a threat, we see them as a benefit,” the Nationals leader said.

Why Sydney ?

Since it is Sydney you are looking at, it will be easier to define your search and contact the schools directly.

RMIT in Melbourne don't English.

But you can easily write PTE and result comes out fast and it is straight English exam and easier.

Thanks mate!!! I really appreciate but it's not for me though

University of Technology Sydney, University of New South Wales and some of the schools on A1 list don't demand for English test. Although I think it's needed while processing your visa (I stand to be corrected). Cos pfl demanded for mine during visa application.

Hope this helps.

Yes it does help thanks hips

Make sure you dont have what they call money lodgment. Total balance doesn't really matter if you have constant inflow and out flow of funds.
Do not present a bank statement upon your visa lodgement until your case officer ask for one.
@bold does it mean during filing my visa application whether my school is an AL1 school or not, that I shouldn't present bank statement except if told to do so by the case officer?

Is your mba for 2years? If no, it will be useless going for it as you may not be able to continue your stay in Australia after your course except you find a company to sponsor you.

Only degree courses above 2years are given a 2years graduate visa after completion. That also means you have to look for a job in your field of study and may be get the company to sponsor you for a work visa or you apply for your PR if you meet the immigration requirements.

thank you sir and God bless you.

sorry to bother you but i have few questions to ask again.
so one who goes for diploma too will not be given a 2yrs graduate visa?the mba has not been giving yet. we are just looking for cheaper fees

Another is,how can one who has a bsc in public administration study bsc nursing since no background of sciences. does it mean writing another WAEC?

tbanks.

No diploma is not inclusive. Sorry

Don't inform them you already have a degree in public admin otherwise you may find it hard securing admission with the school. Just enrol as a freshman. And NO i dont think you need to rewrite a waec.
