JQPN OSCE Preparation Program for Nurses

Gain the skills, knowledge and confidence to become an internationally qualified nurse in Australia with the unique OSCE Preparation Program for Nurses at Victoria University (VU) in Melbourne.

The OSCE (Objective Structured Clinical Examination) is a rigorous practical assessment of clinical skills required for nursing registration in Australia.

Our specialised program will familiarise you with the Australian healthcare system, giving you the best chance of success. You’ll be provided with expert training in the key areas of the OSCE, alongside supervised practice in modern clinical facilities.

Becoming an Internationally Qualified Registered Nurse (IQRN) in Australia requires several steps. If you pass the Nursing Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) self-check, you’ll then need to complete a National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN) before taking the OSCE. Applicants for our OSCE Preparation Program must prove they have already passed the NCLEX-RN. Applicants must also demonstrate they meet the NMBA English language skills registration standard, with an IELTS score of 7.0 in all bands, or equivalent.
