Hi, I did not get full credits for my canadian RPN program (done from humber collge in 2009) from Texas board of nurses (evaluation was done by CGFNS). They have sent me the list of courses and practical hours that i need to complete before i could write my PN NCLEX exam SilkyKN: From where have you done your RPN program? What is the process for getting LPN/RPN licence in Michigan? The courtesy of a reply would be appreciated.

you guys were right........I didn't get any credit for my canadian studies in India.

Congratulations and wish you all the best in your future endeavours :)

extremely sorry for the late response. INC did not give me any credit for my canadian studies . Now I am back here in canada.

Hi All, I am already here in India and just wondering how Indian nurses are doing here? I want to be in touch with you guys via this site to share work experiene, ethics and new methods. BTW: My name is Amar and I've recently moved in from Canada. I did my 2 yrs RPN program in Canada and worked there for 3 yrs. Now I am in Punjaba and I would like to further pursue my studies with B.Sc nursing (in India). I also want to continue practising nursing but do not know the licensing procedure. Can anybody help??? I will contact Indian nursing counsil dometime next week. Eagerly waiting for replies.......... Amar

Yea, I know some nurses from India do not need to upgrade and on the contrary some have go to colleges for upgrading.............i think it depends on the # of yrs of experience.

I contacted CNO and they said that they will do my evaluation as an international student.

Hi All, Finally, I decided to go back to India for my further studies. I am an RPN in Canda and did my 2 yrs nursing Diploma from Humber college in 2009. I want to go to India for B.Sc Nursing. ANybody has an idea of evaluation process in india?? Do I have to start from the scratch in order to do the Nursing degree program in India...which means 4 years??? I wrote couple of emails to nursing council of India but no replies yet. Thanks

Hi All, I am a Canadian nurse (basically from Punjab) and planning to go back to India for my further studies.

Thanks!

Hi, I am talking to a recruiter who will help me to get a job in the states. I currently live in canada and waiting for all the info this recruiter will provide me and I certainly can ask her about insurance/liability coverage. Would you mind saring---- how did you get a job in states? Is it a contract job? where you in canada before and somebody interviewed you on phone from states? I have replied to a posting t kijiji site R/T ''required canadian nurses to work in states ASAP''. I am excited and scared at the same time.....just want to make sure that this is not a fraud thing. Waiting for your reply...............please and thank you :) Rinks

Hi Friends, I am a Canadian RPN and my long term plan is to move to states (texas). I was searching for a job couple of days ago and had replied to an add R/T work in states (they hire canadian nurse and give them opportunity to work in states). Now, I am exchanging emails with this lady and she is saying that she will be my recruiter in Canada if I decide to apply for a nursing position within the form, but she refused to meet me. Her explanation was : ''In order to keep your salaries high and less expenses..we handle it via email, phone calls.'' She said that there are many positions to choose from..Once I will be accepted into the company, the company will send me a package with step by step instrcutions, they will call also call me, but she (the lady) will be here as well in Canada, as my liason, for clarification as well, if I need. She mentioned that its an easy process and she had travelled with this company for many years. Following are things that I have to do: wrote licencing exam, which will be reimbursed by the company. Once I are ready to take a position, I will be intereviewd by phone..by the nursing manager. If the manager of this position feel I will make the perfect fit, she will send me the paperwork to hire me for the contract term..13 to 26 weeks. Anybody has an idea R/T tis kind of job. But I excited but scared as well..........honestly, I do not want to fall into a trap.................so wondering if anybody has experience with this kind of contracts and jobs. Thanks in advance................desperately waiting for your replies.............PLease and thank you. Rinks
