Hi Sandhu

I think it is unlikely you would get a 6 month placement in Australia or NZ for a number of reasons:

  • One of the educational institutions here would have to supervise your placement on behalf of your training institution.
  • With such a shortage of placements for our own educational institutions, no educational body would want to tie up a placement for 6 months to a foreign student
  • The placement would also have to be approved by the appropriate board for the state in Australia or for the country in NZ. My guess is that when evaluating the standard of education of your institution there may be problems for you.


In contrast if you wanted to have a short experience such as for 6 weeks this may be more favourably looked upon. However the placement would still have to be approved by the registration board involved in the state/country
