    Either way you would have options. If you do a bachelor of nursing, it is 18 months to get your mid if you change your mind later on. Same with MID. If you do a BMID, you can do a 18month course for a masters in nursing.

    Goodluck with whatever you end up doing. I am loving my course so far and can't wait to get out there and do it!

    My ulitmate career goal is midwifery. However, because i am now a single mum and need to get into the workforce as fast as possible i have decided to start my career as either an aged care or disability worker. This way I can get my foot in the door and and work whilst my employer pays me to study and get cert 3 and my div 2 nursing diploma. Then i can go on and do bach nursing while working still, then bach mid. That is my plan. I realise that it may take a good 10/15 years to eventually get to my dream job as midwife, but i will get there
