I was wondering how the system worked over in Australia in terms of entry requirements to becoming a paramedic. In the UK we are highly degree based now and as a result its quite tough for experienced paramedics from across the world to gain employment here (Except for London, they are looking for US and Australian paramedics, link below if you are interested)
So here is my current conditions:
Graduate with a BSc 1st Class Hons in Paramedic Practice (Undergraduate)
Registered paramedic within the UK
Two years experience on the road (Including three years 50/50 practice study) - So technically three and a half years road experience.
Now with all this included - Minus the pain of getting visas and paying to move over AND finding a job - Would I be eligible to become a paramedic?
I can't add links as I'm new to the site, so I've had to break up the link
