Is LPN to RN bridging courses available for International Educated Nurses?

Hi there I'll be flying to Canada this September if my student visa is granted. I am also currently applied for assessment of eligibility in CARNA. Most likely they will require me to take the SEC assessment in CANADA. Just in case I failed and requi...

Money is not flowing in Dubai at the moment due to lowered price of oil. But nurse pay is good anyways, For a theater nurse it is around 8,000 dirhams or 103,000 Philippine peso (Note: I am not a nurse in Dubai). It's the contract of my immediate su...

What province are you planning to register? Please remember that some of them requires an SEC assessment prior to eligibility to sit for the exam. You could find lot of information regarding SEC on this website.:)

Any plan that ends well is good enough for me. If goal is not met never let go of it.. Only redirect the path the you will take but the road leads to the same goal. I have so many plans for myself and my family. Listed so many steps in achieving my g...

In my case I took the kaplan review and passed the first time, passing the NCLEX really depend on the discipline of the student. But I never deny the fact that the review center has contributed to me. It helps lessen my anxiety and conditioned my min...

The issue must resolve first in our country, The government must stop the influx of nursing schools and set high standards and rigid testing of professors for newly open schools. Some investors are opening schools just for the money; strict complian...

I read the thread that you referred, thank you very much. But I still want to know the experience of students from the bridging program. So I can picture it out and condition my mind.

@gemini star - Thanks for replying to my thread and directed me to this one. No canadian bridging program is not compulsory as far as I know. If you look at the website of Mount royal College it states that CARNA will require you to enroll the subje...

That's a problem too, I've checked with National bookstore and C&E publishing they have no CNA review books or CRNE books by MOSBY or Lippincot. It seems getting a hold of the review materials from Canada is difficult here in the Philippines. I t...

@ATZRN it is better to apply for an assessment first and wait for the results, They will contact you if they needed additional requirements or if they would like you take an SEC (depends on the province and individual assessment of the board on your ...

They are correct, it is wise to wait for the assessment from Ontario (for nursing registration). Canada immigration is by point basis, you could check the website if you are qualified even without an employer. But I doubt it will do, because having a...

may I know what province is your Aunt in Canada?

I think you should take it step by step, and the first step is look for a province that would suit your lifestyle. Based from your comment. I think you are taking the provincial Nominee Program. However, It is a pre-requisite to have an employer inor...

I have an ongoing assessment in CARNA and will be flying in Canada this september just in case they require me to take SEC, however my problem is I can't visualize what SEC would really be like. I hope I could prepare myself prior to the assessment.

Temporary Resident Visa is like the Tourist Visa in the US. The immigration officer upon arrival to Canada will determine on how long you can stay in the said country. Yes there is no problem when looking for an employer, the problem is with the visa...

What book do you recommend to review prior to a SEC assessment? Thanks

1.) They require IELTS for IEN 2.) Credential Evaluation or grade on English subjects taken from College has no bearing, If you are an IEN you still need to take IELTS as far as I know. 3.)Yes, immigration is different from CARNA application. If you ...

I sent it 2nd week of march I think, I forgot to send my passport copy and they mailed me that they needed it. The instruction was to send it thru e-mail so it was fast and cheap. I already received my license thru mail yesterday. Did they gave you y...

Hi just checked my account and it's already active, however, I have not received yet my license thru mail

ah, they must be first eligible to sit the exam for CRNE in order to enroll for the said course. They must first apply to the provincial licensing bodies like CARNA etc.. However, some of the provincial institutions require first the International E...
