Nursing & Midwifery education & training

The Women's provides a comprehensive education and training program for nurses and midwives.

The Women's education and training program is designed to help health professionals provide best practice care that meets the specific needs of women.

Some of our programs are for nurses and midwives employed at the Women's, while other programs are also open to external applicants. 

The Womens is currently not running these programs: Return to Practice for Nurses and Midwives, Initial Registration for Overseas Nurses and Midwives and Refresher Course for Nurses.

The Royal Women’s Hospital will not be offering Graduate Programs for enrolled nurses in 2021.
