Hi val0922.. What do you mean by study plan? If you're an RN in the Philippines, you can go for the 1 yr RPN bridging course or take a different course that is offered to international students. As an...
Hi Smith_RN, sorry it took me a year to reply. Hope you'll still be able to read this. The first thing you need to do is to take an English proficiency exam such as the IELTS. That's a requirement of...
Hi.. I can't believe I started this thread 2 years ago.. been awhile. Yes, I took the RPN exam sept of last year and passed it. But to get my license, I need to finish this RPN course (because I...
