  1. NNAS experience?

    Efg1990, Are they asking you to do the IEN bridge again because of the hours (vs the 5 year thing)? Also, I'm on the west coast so it could be totally different (another problem with the system), but here they have an assessment that IENs who are peg...
  2. NNAS experience?

    I also did a 2nd degree accelerated BSN and I sent ALL of my transcripts, to cover my bases. I would think that the state BONs would be responsive about forwarding licensing verification, since that's something they have to do every day. I had to se...
  3. NNAS experience?

    Only difference is, in Ontario it now costs $500 and in Alberta the exact same exam costs $1900. Whoa! í ½í¸®
  4. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    I'm a US-educated RN who called CRNBC to ask about he fee schedule- even though English is obviously my first language and NNAS already documented English proficiency, I still had to pay CRNBC's Part I (registration is 2 separate payments here) fee o...
  5. NNAS experience?

    This is the first I've heard of ARNAP for AB. I know BC switched from SEC to NCAS earlier in 2017. Both Alberta and Ontario's assessments are offered through Touchstone right? Are they essentially the same? Should this level of assessment not be the ...
  6. NNAS experience?

    Nope, no survey request here either.
  7. Hi, As @dishes knows, I have posted in other NNAS-related threads but I just came across this one for the first time. As a US-IEN now licensed in BC I just wanted to add that BC is no longer using SEC but rather NCAS for equivalency testing. I came ...
  8. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    Have we encountered any applicants who have appealed the NNAS decision? My impression has been that (regardless of the Advisory Report determination) applicants are still moving to the Colleges upon receipt of the Report. The way in which the appeals...
  9. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    NNAS needs to specify what they're looking for, as the handbook does not dictate the type of envelope/stamp/seal/return address. In the meantime, hopefully prospective applicants can learn from the experiences of those who have endured the process. L...
  10. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    I am the individual who wrote about the employer letter being rejected. I provided my manager with a self-addressed stamped envelope paper clipped to the form that she had to complete by hand. I did not see the document again. They rejected the envel...
  11. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    Oh, and as an aside CRNBC just changed their equivalency testing from SEC to NCAS in Jan 2017. Being a NICU nurse, I REALLY thought I would have to do it (but happy to have avoided it). Competency assessment
  12. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    @RN_Pro , I wonder what would have happened if you were applying in BC... Given that we are both Canadians with US (BSN) education and work experience we should have the same outcome, no? Do you think the timing of the NNAS applications are playing a...
  13. US IENs in Ontario, Canada

    Hey dishes I have a question, If a current job description is considered by CNO to provide important information r/t competency, shouldn't that be something the NNAS application requires as part of the employer documents? It sounds to me like the co...
  14. NNAS Advisory Report Results

    1) 2nd degree BSN, George Mason University, US 2) Comparable and somewhat comparable results 3) Registered as RN in BC within 2 weeks 4) Last worked in US August 2016 5) No equivalency testing required from CRNBC 6) It took me about 3 months to get ...
  15. NNAS experience?

    I second this suggestion. I sent my educational materials via flash drive and included hundreds of pages of course information. Also, make sure you send everything requiring a receipt or signature because NNAS denied getting one of my mailings and I ...
