Ontario has lots of bridging programs from what I understand if you're an RPN already. I suppose the most logical view in my opinion would be to complete your bridging program in Canada. I am slightly confused about the whole nursing education system in the United States and the differences in nursing. Nursing in Canada is highly regarded worldwide, so if I were you I would complete it here. Then you could go to the states and write the NCLEX if thats what your heart desires. My girlfriend went to the states as a travel nurse is loving it, so I think there is lots of opportunity despite the lagging in job growth altogether! Stay in Canada and complete your bridging program would be my answer.

College of Nurses of Ontario if youre from Ontario. Call them and they can tell you for sure. They call the shots for all the nurses in Ontario and will naturally be responsible for assessing you

I took the CRNE course in Toronto by primed. They do 2 day courses at the Universities and you can find them at PRIMED Educational Associates ~ Your Lifeline to the CRNE.. A couple of my girlfriends took it at Toronto School of Nursing and they all said good things about it too. The 2 day course was good enough for me though, but I studied A LOT! The nursing program at U of IT (where I went) is too accelerated in my opinion and I found that I didn't feel I was prepared enough to write the exam. Nothing beats studying, so don't be one of those people that leaves studying until the last minute. If you don't feel comfortable to write, just remember not too. 3 strikes and youre out! Good luck with your studying and try your best!!!!!!!!!!!!!:w00t:
