"I chose to study nursing at The Gordon because of its fantastic reputation and the pathways to Deakin University. The teachers are all nurses and the facilities are a great learning tool, providing time to practice our nursing care.
Work placement provided the best learning experience, allowing me to use what I had learnt in the classroom in real situations. I’m a visual learner so I really enjoyed the focus on hands-on practical work.
I’m now undertaking my graduate program and plan on studying my Bachelor of Nursing at Deakin next year, while working at Epworth."
