Hi everyone,

I am new here and hoping I can benefit from your advice. I am studying Aged Care Cert 3 at the moment and I am thinking that perhaps I'll keep going and study Nursing as well, maybe next year.

My question to you is, what is the difference between in the course content and enjoyment factor, between Aged Care cert 3 and studying to become an EN?Or should I do the Cert 4 after this course, and then branch into nursing? Or just jump straight into nursing?

Also, I am 40, so this is a life change for me. I've been around the block and serious about this change. So once I make this decision it'll be final.

If I were to study again it would be part time. I am having trouble fitting in full time studies with my part time commitments. I am exhausted most of the time because of it.

Thanks so much, I appreciate it.
