Terms & Conditions.
The terms that apply when you use this website, enrol in a programme or buy a course from OBA Nursing Academy.
1. About these terms
These terms apply between you and OBA Nursing Academy (ABN 38 015 879 575) ("OBA", "we", "us") when you use this website, book a consultation, enrol in a programme or buy a course. By enrolling or buying, you agree to them.
If you enrol in a pathway programme you will also receive a Letter of Offer. If the Letter of Offer says something different from these terms, the Letter of Offer applies.
These terms should be read with our Fees, Refund and Cancellation Policy and our Privacy Policy.
2. What we provide
OBA provides education, exam preparation, clinical skills training and professional development.
What we do not provide. OBA does not register nurses or midwives and does not deliver a nursing or midwifery qualification. Registration decisions are made by the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) through Ahpra. Skills assessments for migration are made by ANMAC. Visas are decided by the Department of Home Affairs. The NMBA and Ahpra do not endorse any external exam preparation programme, including ours.
We do not guarantee that you will pass an exam, be registered, be offered employment or sponsorship, or be granted a visa. Those outcomes depend on you and on decisions made by other organisations.
OBA does not give migration advice. In Australia, migration advice may only be given by a registered migration agent or an Australian legal practitioner.
3. Information on this website
Information on this website about registration, exams, English language requirements, fees charged by regulators and visas is general information, current when published. Requirements change. Always check your own situation with the relevant regulator before you act.
Where our website offers an automated chat assistant, its answers are general information only. It can make mistakes. Ask to deal with a member of our team before you rely on an answer for an important decision.
4. Enrolment
- You must give us accurate and complete information, and tell us if it changes.
- Some programmes have entry requirements. We may ask for evidence that you meet them.
- For pathway programmes, your place is confirmed when you have accepted your Letter of Offer and paid the amount it requires.
- We may decline an enrolment. If we decline after you have paid, we will refund what you paid for that enrolment.
5. Fees and payment
- Fees are in Australian dollars. The total price, including GST where it applies, is shown before you pay.
- Card payments are processed by a secure third-party payment provider. We do not store your card details.
- Unless we say otherwise, our fees do not include amounts charged by other organisations, such as Ahpra and NMBA fees, exam fees, English tests, ANMAC fees, visa charges, travel and accommodation.
- Payment plans are available only where we have agreed to one in writing.
See the Fees, Refund and Cancellation Policy for details.
6. Refunds and cancellations
Refunds and cancellations are covered by our Fees, Refund and Cancellation Policy. Nothing in that policy or these terms limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law.
7. Online courses and learning materials
- Your access is for you alone. Do not share your login.
- Access lasts for the period stated on the course page or in your Letter of Offer.
- Course materials, question banks, simulations, slides and documents belong to OBA or its licensors. You may use them for your own study. You may not copy, record, share, sell or publish them.
- We may update course content to keep it current.
8. Your conduct
You agree to treat our staff, educators and other learners with respect, to complete assessments honestly and as your own work, and to follow reasonable directions in simulation and clinical skills sessions. We may suspend or cancel an enrolment for serious misconduct, dishonesty or giving us false documents. Before we do, we will tell you why and give you a chance to respond.
9. Changes we may need to make
We may need to change a date, an educator, a delivery mode or a location. If we do, we will tell you as early as we can. If a change we make means you can no longer take part, the Fees, Refund and Cancellation Policy sets out your options.
10. Your rights and our responsibility to you
Our services come with guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded, including that services will be provided with due care and skill. Nothing in these terms removes or limits those rights.
Subject to those rights, we are not responsible for decisions made by regulators, exam providers, employers or government departments, or for costs you pay to other organisations.
11. Privacy
We handle your personal information as set out in our Privacy Policy.
12. Complaints
If something is not right, please tell us at info@obana.com.au. We will acknowledge your complaint, look into it fairly and tell you the outcome in writing. A copy of our Complaints and Appeals Policy is available on request.
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version on this page on the day you enrol or buy applies to that enrolment or purchase.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of Queensland, Australia.
