Moving in a new direction: from nursing to midwifery
Capital, Coast and Hutt Valley encourage health professional to consider midwifery as a great career choice.
Otago Polytechnic and ARA Polytechnic have been approved to provide a shortened course which would be run for those with an existing health degree wanting to become midwives.
Registered Nurses are required to complete two specific topics and other health professionals three. Then you can join midwifery students at the start of their second year to progress with this exciting career change.
