This year marked the implementation of three new specialisations: Cancer Care Nursing, Neuroscience Nursing and Palliative and End of Life Care. Initial enrolments have been strong, with current projections already indicating continued growth in these streams into 2026. Feedback from our industry partners confirms that these specialisations are closely aligned with workforce priorities and reflect the skills and knowledge needed to grow our nursing and midwifery workforce. We’ve developed a Graduate Certificate Prescribing for Midwives and are now creating RN designated prescribing units to meet the future workforce needs of Australian healthcare by educating nurses and midwives to work to their full scope of practice.
Associate Professor Jacqui Allen stepped down from her position as Course Director in mid-2025, after successfully leading the program for five years. I am excited to take over this role and look forward working with our amazing team of nursing academics and supporting professional staff in the post-registration Masters degrees. We aim to continue strengthening our collaborations with industry partners to deliver post-registration masters programs that are designed to ensure our graduates possess the expertise to thrive in their diverse professional environments.
