Calvary Graduate Nurse Transition Program 

Program Eligibility

To be eligible for the Calvary GNTP program, applicants must:

• Be completing a Bachelor of Nursing (for RN), Diploma of Nursing
  (for EN), or Bachelor of Midwifery (for RM) leading to AHPRA Registration

• Be ready to commence employment in early 2026

• Most sites operate at a standard 0.8 FTE; please refer to individual site pages for any site-specific variations

• Be an Australian or New Zealand citizen or hold a visa allowing ongoing full-time employment in Australia
  (Note: Applicants with more than 3 months full-time equivalent nursing experiences are not eligible.)

For Registered Nurse (RN) graduate applicants with prior experience as an Enrolled Nurse (EN), this restriction does not apply. The 3-month experience limit only applies if you have worked in the same role you are applying for:

• RN program → only prior RN experience counts; EN experience is irrelevant.
• EN program → only prior EN experience counts.
