Certificate IV and Diploma are the same course. However, doing Diploma means you are doing few extra units on top which is roughly an extra 6 months.
Both give you enrolled nursing qualification but I do believe the rules are changing next year so that you have to do diploma and can no longer just do certificate IV ( If you are already enrolled or have already completed cert IV you are exempt its just for new students )

I'm currently enrolled in certificate IV but plan on doing the extra units to get my Diploma.

Im also doing mine at Healthskills .

Goodluck.
Danielle.
