Melbourne Nursing Agency's inservice and short course education
programs are provided at no cost to members. We aim to ensure that our members are

experienced nurse educators facilitate all education sessions. Highly

individual basis to further develop clinical skills. If there are
specific areas members would like further assistance with please let us
know and we will endeavour to make those needs a priority.
Our Education Calendar is planned annually and is now available to members. Please remember that
you must register your interest for a session one week before the session
