Hello there everyone.
I don't know if some of you guys are actually familiar with Sprott-Shaw Community College.
Well, they opened a SSCC campus here in Phil and offers a RCA diploma course. I'm studying under that course and it will end by November this year.
I need answers to my following questions since they can't give us a concrete information as to what would happen to us after this program:
1. As RCA, is there any possibility for us to upgrade our status as LPN/RN when we reach Canada? ( taking into consideration that I'm a RN here in my country but doesn't have any hospital experience yet)
2. if "YES", how long is it going to take before we could actually sit in the CRNE and does being a RCA will be counted as experience?
I know guys you are going to ask me if why I didn't go straight and take the CRNE and practice RN? well, it's because I don't have any hospital experience yet and I can't afford to look for one in this current situation of Nursing Profession here in our country.
So, just a little information will be highly appreciated.
Thanks so much and more power to this site (it's very helpful indeed.)
