The Diploma of Nursing (HLT54121) is coming to Echuca, giving local students the opportunity to train as an Enrolled Nurse without the need to relocate or travel long distances.
Commencing in May 2026, this nationally recognised qualification is delivered by Bendigo TAFE and is available as a Free TAFE course for eligible students*, meaning no tuition fees.
The course builds the practical skills, confidence and knowledge needed to support patients and communities across hospitals, aged care and community health settings. You’ll learn through a mix of classroom study, hands‑on training and clinical placement, helping you graduate job‑ready and connected to local healthcare pathways.
There’s no ATAR requirement, making nursing more accessible for school leavers, career changers and those returning to study.
Studying locally means you can stay connected to your community while preparing for a career that truly makes a difference.
If you’re ready to take the next step towards nursing, now’s the time to get started.
