Since March 2020, it is the standard pathway for most IQNMs. It combines supervised practice, the NCLEX-RN, and the OSCE.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about the Australian Nursing Registration Pathways, including OBA, NCLEX (Next Generation NCLEX), OSCE and AHPRA requirements.
What is OBA?
Outcome Based Assessment (OBA) is the new process of assessment model introduced by Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA), Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) for Internationally Qualified Nurses and Midwives (IQNM). It is a two‑staged assessment process introduced by NMBA, AHPRA in March 2020. The OBA process includes multiple‑choice question exam (MCQ) also known as Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) or Nursing Council Licensure Examination and an Objective Structured Clinical Exam (OSCE). Before moving to the next stage, Internationally Qualified Nurses and Midwives (IQNMs) should pass these stages first.
What is with Orientation Stage?
This stage is an online learning course that will give information and introduction to Australia (geography, territories, languages, ethnic groups, etc.) and Australian Healthcare context. It includes watching videos, reading and some sort of question‑and‑answer portions. This stage of Outcome Based Assessment (OBA) is free of charge.
Can nurses get PR in Australia?
Yes, nurses can get permanent residency (PR) in Australia.
What is Next Generation NCLEX (NGN)?
The National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX‑NGN) also known as the multiple‑choice question (MCQ) is a newly introduced method of assessment by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) is a computer‑administered examination and consists of items ranging from 75 to 145 questions. The examination results of Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) are utilized by the nursing regulatory bodies (NRBs) as a critical component in the decision‑making regarding registration/licensure of the nursing profession.
What is Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE)?
Registered Nurse Objective Structured Clinical Examination (RN OSCE) is a test that examines foreign registered nurses. RN OSCE is administered to such nurses desiring to become registered as nurses in Australia. After the candidate successfully passes the Next Generation NCLEX (NGN), they will proceed with OSCE which is a behavioral assessment developed to determine if the IQNM demonstrates the knowledge, skills and competence required.
How does OSCE differ from Next Generation NCLEX (NGN)?
Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) is multiple choice while OSCE is an actual practical exam. OSCE will simulate a clinical environment and patient scenarios which Registered Nurses are likely to encounter when they assess, diagnose, plan, implement and evaluate care. Nurses are expected to utilize contemporary evidence-based practice and effectively demonstrate the safe practical application of nursing skills.
How long will OSCE take?
The examination will take approximately 3-3.5 hours. It may be scheduled for morning or afternoon. OSCE has 10 individual stations, with each station having 10 minutes allocation: 2 minutes for reading and 8 minutes for interaction.
