Grants available for midwifery postgraduate education

18 November 2011
Health Workforce New Zealand (HWNZ) is pleased to announce that grants are now available for midwifery postgraduate education (additional to the complex care clinical training).

The main purpose of the grants funding is to subsidise the cost of the student fees. The New Zealand College of Midwives (NZCOM) will be managing the application and selection processes on behalf of HWNZ.

Applications for grants for midwifery academic education undertaken in Semester One 2012 (the period 1 January 2012 to 30 June 2012) are now being invited.  NZCOM is currently unable to disburse funding for Semester Two papers at this time. We will be seeking applications for post graduate grants from midwives enrolling in Semester Two papers around May 2012.

If you have any questions Midwifery Postgraduate Education please email NZCOM at nzcom@nzcom.org.nz  or phone (03) 377 2732.
