Not offered in 2004
The Graduate Diploma of Nursing (Gerontics) course is offered by off-campus
learning or by flexible mode (ie a combination of optional on-campus
tutorials/seminars and off-campus learning modes). The course consists of a
number of specialised gerontics units, which will normally be completed over a
period of two years. Successful completion of the course requires completion of
the specialised units.
Applicants would normally have a degree in nursing or a related discipline;
registration with Nurses Board of Victoria (Division 1 or eligible for
registration); and at least one year of nursing experience. Experience in the
relevant area of practice is desirable.
At Peninsula, there will be a series of optional tutorials/seminars on campus throughout the semester to support study materials and clinical fieldwork.
* The course structure in under review - unit details will be available in 2004.
Assessment includes assignments, an individual student learning contract, program development, research proposal, examination, computer assessment and project.
