Graduate Nurse Careers Program 

Date: Monday 27 May & Wednesday 29 May 2024

Time: 9:30am – 4:30pm

Location: City West campus, Allan Scott Auditorium (H2-16)

Attention all final-year nursing students!

Are you eager to find out more about graduate programs and employment available to you when you graduate? Join our Graduate Nurse Careers Program and connect with employers as they share information about their organisation and guide you through their application process. You’ll hear from both the public and private sector, as well as from graduates who have commenced their careers in nursing. There will be numerous opportunities for students to ask questions of all presenters throughout the day.

The program is held over two days, but please note that the second session is a repeat of the first, so it is not necessary to attend both sessions unless you wish to do so. While the content for both sessions will be similar, there may be different representatives present at each.

View all presenters below and register now to secure your spot. If you're a regional student, you can register for the live online event.

*Please arrive at 9:30am sharp to allow time to register and take your seat before the event commences.
