The Australian College of Nursing (ACN) and the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Accreditation Council (Anmac) are pleased to announce a joint initiative to better improve the career outcomes of the 40% of Australia’s nurses who are internationally qualified or overseas born.

The organisations have agreed to share resources to progress research designed to improve career outcomes for internationally qualified or overseas-born nurses in Australia, who – despite making up a significant proportion of the workforce – remain underrepresented in management and leadership positions.
