CES stands for "Credential Evaluation Service." It's a process that assesses and verifies foreign education credentials to determine their equivalency to U.S. standards.

ERES is an organization that provides credential evaluations. It reviews and evaluates educational documents from international institutions and prepares reports for various purposes, including nursing licensure.

In your case, you have a CES report from ERES, which is used to demonstrate that your education meets the requirements set by the Virginia Board of Nursing.

Yes, the Virginia Board of Nursing does accept evaluations from ERES (Educational Records Evaluation Service). However, it's always best to check directly with the board or their website for current requirements and specific instructions.

Best wishes,
