The Social Welfare Department is inviting applications for two nursing courses.
Conducted by the Open University of Hong Kong, the two-year full-time higher diploma programmes in general nursing and psychiatric nursing will offer 200 and 30 places.
The department said the programmes are part of its efforts to alleviate the shortage of nurses in the welfare sector.
Classes will start on September 4.
Applicants must be at least 18 years old, and have attained Level 2 or above in five subjects in the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination, or completed a pre-associate degree programme, or an equivalent qualification.
The department will subsidise trainees, provided they work in the welfare sector for at least two years upon graduation.
Applications will close on June 30.
For enquiries, call 3120 2661 or 3120 2662.
