LPN from BC taking RN in Athabasca University

Published

Hello all fellow nurses. I have a question. I am currently working as LPN in Vancouver. The last couple of years, the LPNs were merged to join the RNs in the same union. Now, after I am done my RN (which would take over two years), will I start my pay wage as a fresh grad or would my years of experience from LPN count? Somebody tell me how it works please. Thanks.

Contact your union directly and ask them. One of the representatives there should be able to answer any questions for you better than we can.
