Hi there. I have US and Canadian Nursing licenses. When I moved to Canada, I had to take the exam here and pay a TON of $$ for the registration here and the assessment of my education, etc. Each year...
Thanks for the info but I am still in Canada and the BNE said none of the education my employer offers is valid, I am sure that goes for any documentation I can get from my employer. Also, to take...
I am an RN in Canada at the moment. I did my education and NCLEX in Texas and worked there for 8 months before I moved. Right at the time I moved, I renewed my license (no CEUs are required for your...
Anyone know the answer to the Bioterrorism question? I heard back from the Texas BNE and they sent me information about the CUEs from online sources but no mention of the Type I that they previously...

Don't be intimidated by ACC! I graduated there in 2005 from the 1st Fastrack (15 month) program thehy no longer offer. Most of the instructors are AWESOME! When I started, I was so scared and thought-...
I graduated ACC in 2005 (1st Fastrack class) and took micro in my 1st semester, and A&P1 in another and A&P2 in the 3rd...that was before they separated anatomy and physiology into 2 classes....
Thanks, I did see this on the BNE website but their information is confusing and not specific. I am going to try to look for my original info that I received when I got my license in the mail to see...

I have come to know in the short amount of time I have been a nurse, that pateint ratios and working conditions are different from unit to unit. It is good that you are doing your research by asking...
Hey, just giving you some perspective....grass isn't always greener. Why would you want to know the salary for DFW anyway, you said yourself what the patient ratio was from your experience and that...

I took it Oct 2006, same multiple choice/short answer as always. I felt the same way. The questions were not clear, the test was WAY too long (and on paper!!) and I didn't feel confident at all, but...
Alberta- it gets marked in Ontario, then goes to the provincial nursing assoc, then out to us. It took 2 weeks for me to get my license in the mail after I sent in the form
you CAN work in Canada without an RN licence for a specified term. If you get approval from the nursing province, you can obtain a temporary license and start working as a "graduate nurse" even if you...
I was educated and worked in the US for 8 months before moving to Canada where I am from originally. I just started in the PICU and find that nursing as a whole is pretty much the same. You would have...
I took the exam yesterday (yes, it is as horrible as you hear) and used the study guide from the CRNE...it helps with getting you familiar with the WORDING of the test, but not with the content. I...
