I also posted this in one of the main forums but probably more relevant here. I have been accepted into Podiatry school this September and initially was really exited about this however I don't quite meet the eligibility criteria for bursary funding as I have a uk passport but have only been in the country 2 and a half years. I will be eligible first of April 2017 however obviously...

I'm currently in my second year as a podiatry student and I'm currently finding that a lot of things are suddenly beginning to make sense!

I was wondering - as professional or student podiatrist, which particular piece of research, journal article, book or similar has made the biggest impact to you in your career to date?

Cheers,

I'm trying to track down what stand-alone training courses may exist for nail surgery & anaethesia.

We have a Podiatrist who needs this, as it did not form part of her original qualification.

The course would need to be recognised by AHPRA, the registration board in Australia. And, as we're in Tasmania, a block course rather than day release is preferable. We found one course in...

I'm considering to study podiatry for a career change as a mature-age student, and would like to know more about the course and learning experience from current students or graduates from these two unis.

I've had experience living in both brisbane and adelaide, love both. So it all comes down the course, I would really appreciate if you guys could hopefully let me know...
