Hi CarribRN and jazz1983, to jazz1983: Are you here in Canada already? How did your application went? to CarribRN: Where are you registered now? Did you choose Manitoba or Alberta? I am thinking about what you did. You took had an assessment from CNO...

Hi Annie, I've read some of your post. Are you a live in caregiver? Im Mark, I'm a live in caregiver too and a nurse from the Philippines. I'm looking for someone in the same situation as I do. I'm a bit confused on how to be a nurse here in BC. Ple...

Hi cnzapf, How did you apply to Alberta? Did you go directly to the hospital or just submitted resume online? Did you registered to CRNBC? Thanks

yes, you can do that. IELTS is cheaper if you take it from the Philippines instead of here in Canada. And you can submit your documents to CRNBC while you are still there.

I just submitted my application last May 2011. By July 1, the band score will be raised. I forgot how much but you can check the CRNBC website to verify. Are you here in Canada?

I just took the IELTS here in Canada last May 7, 2011. I then submitted my documents and waiting for the reply of CRNBC. If you can, you can take the IELTS in your home country, it really depends on you.

Ok. The job prospect for nurses in BC is not good. So what are the best actions to take for now? Is it good to transfer to other province like Alberta or get licensed here as a LPN instead while waiting for the employment situation for RN's in BC to ...

oh, the situation for us nurses isn't getting better. It is even harder for international nurses in BC. Is it all because of the budget cuts in healthcare?

I'm at the initial stages of applying for CRNBC. I also plans to submit forms at CLPNBC after I submit my documents to CRNBC. Someone told me that after you have submitted your documents to CRNBC, even before you take the SEC, you can send your docum...

Is there anyone here who can give their opinion regarding the LPN registration? Is it advisable to pass an application to both CRNBC and CLPNBC? I heard that if you passed an initial application to CRNBC for assessment, you can write them a letter to...

Anyone here an international nurse who is also a live in caregiver seeking certification here in Canada or B.C? Im an international nurse from the Philippines who is under the live in caregiver program. I am now seeking certification here in B.C. I h...

Is there anyone here who can give their opinion regarding the LPN registration? Is it advisable to pass an application to both CRNBC and CLPNBC? I heard that if you passed an initial application to CRNBC for assessment, you can write them a letter to...

yeah, I heard that it is very hard to get an employer nowadays in B.C. I friend of mine even volunteered just to complete the 250 hours requirement to be able to get the full RN registration. She had no permanent or part time position until now, and ...

if you are an immigrant already in Canada, you can go to skills connect. They will subsidize 75% of your expenses in upgrading your education. goodluck.

Live in caregivers in Canada can get certified while they are still under the program and waiting to complete the 24 months requirement. They can process their application to CRNBC or from other provinces of Canada

Hi. where are you from? im here in Canada under a temporary working permit. Im planning to take the CRNE but im just starting to complete the english requirements first.

ah, now i understand. If there are really no vacancies available for new nurses especially the internationally educated, what are we supposed to do for now? Do you think it is a good idea if I take the LPN exam instead than proceed with the CRNE?

@kimmy 29 hi, are you too from the Philippines. Im now in surrey. I still have to complete the english requirement before I can pass the documents required by the CRNBC. yes, i think it is hard for international nurse to find a job in bc. i know s...
