HERC proudly delivers accredited training through a Third Party Arrangement with ANMEC (Australian Nursing & Midwifery Education Centre), RTO Code 40064. This arrangement enables HERC to deliver ANMEC’s HLT54121 Diploma of Nursing in Tasmania. Note: the phrase ‘in partnership’ when used in conjunction with training organisation logos on this website refers to this arrangement.

We stand in solidarity with marginalised communities and against classism, sexism, misogyny, homophobia, queerphobia, transphobia, racism, ableism and ageism. We have zero tolerance for discrimination, harassment and abuse.
We also acknowledge and respect the Traditional Owners of lands across Australia, their Elders, Ancestors, cultures, and heritage, and recognise the continuing sovereignties of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Nations.
