Delivered by the University of Notre Dame Australia's School of Medicine, this program enables registered nurses (accredited by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia) to expand their career opportunities within healthcare. The curriculum directly corresponds with the professional competencies outlined for registered paramedics by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA). Following a National Curriculum framework, the course equips students for paramedic roles across both conventional and alternative healthcare environments. Participants will acquire essential knowledge, practical abilities, and professional qualities necessary for safe, effective, and modern paramedic practice.

This advanced paramedicine qualification enables learners to focus on their preferred practice areas, developing highly skilled healthcare practitioners ready for immediate employment. The program bridges students' existing clinical expertise with the professional standards expected of Australian registered paramedics. Incorporating both national and global evidence-based approaches to paramedic practice, the Graduate Diploma provides current, practical learning experiences through clinical placements and work-integrated learning opportunities.
