Qualification: Certificate IV in Nursing

Campus: Shellharbour

What were you doing before you enrolled at TAFE? I did my Certificate III in Nursing before I started working in a Nursing Home for a year.

Why did you enrol at TAFE? Enrolling at TAFE was a compulsory part of my course.

Why did you choose this career path? It was the next step to becoming a Registered Nurse, from an Assistant in Nursing.

What do you enjoy most about your training at TAFE? I got to know my classmates very well, just from being with them for 5 days a week. But, believe it or not I liked the teachers lots.

What is your advice to others thinking about their career & future education? GO FOR IT!!! Nursing holds so many paths, and different opportunities, so try all of them and see which ones you like.

Where do you hope your career path has taken you to 5 years from now? I am planning on doing my RN's soon. So I hope to work in a Nursing Home as an RN. But I'm also interested in theatre - so I'll have to see which doors open and which ones close!
