i am currently a PSW and heard that there is going to be a bridge course from the psw to rpn. I was wondering if it is true... i have tried to get ahold of Niagara College, they are only offering the PN course( or so it says on the web). If anyone has any idea pls let me know!
Thanks

There are only bridges between different levels of nursing. I was a PSW first but that does not count for anything when taking the PN course.

Norquest in Edmonton did something like you described a few years back. I don't think there was a lot of credit given but I seem to remember it cut down the practical time spent in LTCs.

From what I remember it was offered via distance ed. You might want to check their website and see if it still exists.
