hi

LPN programmes exist in every province.

Most provinces are making BScN the norm. Alberta still has a diploma programme running. The year 2010 rings a bell, I think that is either the last intake or date of the last graduating class.

ADN as a descriptive title, I've never heard it used here.

Narrow down which province you are interested in and then the research is easier.

ADN is an 'Associate' Degree, the equivalent to a diploma in Canada. We don't have Associate Degrees in Canada.

im from california and i was wondering if there were and a.d.n or lpn programs in canada:nurse:

Why just get an ADN from the States and then work as an RN in Most provinces in Canada?

A diploma from Canada takes 3 years, while in US takes only 2 years.

An LPN program from Canada takes 2-2.5 years, while in US takes only 1 year.

Just wanted to mention in BC, there are no diploma nursing programs anymore, entry to practice is a BSN. A diploma for LPN is a one-year program, and there are ADNs available in other disciplines, but not in nursing.

Alberta LPN courses are FOUR semesters. I did mine in a crunch of 13 months with minimal time off between semesters. They've changed the course and I believe it is still four semesters but over the "traditional" college years now.

Ontario has 4 year BScN programs. Diploma (college) 3 year program for RN are no longer in place.

Hope this helps.
