Greetings. My name is Claire.I am an IEN . I graduated with Bachelor of Science in Nursing on 2007. I got my Nursing Registration in the same year. I came to Canada in 2010. My last hospital experience was 2010. Counting the years, I am out of practice for 7 years. I heard that in order for me to be eligible for Nursing Registration I should have Hospital Experience for the last 5 years. I took IELTS and CELBAN but I failed. And now I am ready to take CELBAN again for 2nd time.Say, I pass my CELBAN and done NNAS assessment. Are you going to send me to a 4 year Bachelor of Science in Nursing Program? Due to the fact that I am out of practice for 7 years and been graduated 10 years ago? Or should I try my luck and hoping for a better result. I hope to hear anything from you soon, I know that only you can answer my questions.Thank you very much.God bless.

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Yes the colleges will expect to see nursing experience between 3-5 years, the college will make their own assessment based on what you submit but if nothing else you will be asked to do a return to nursing course as long as you meet other requirements

You mean like,they will really send me to a 4-year BSN?

They can request that and we have seen this happen or they can ask you to go to a return to nursing course which is not a full nursing course but something to update your knowledge and ensure you meet standards

Thank you for your response.

The regulatory body may direct you to do an IEN bridging program rather than a full four year program.

I am hoping that to happen.

Do you know someone who has the same case?
