Thank you everyone for your response. One last question is there any specific timeline to claim for your experience. Since I already started working on the salary that HR determined.

My employer has given me experience letter having hours per pay period.

Yeah I am trying to find out the starting pay based on experience. The reason I asked because I have 2years 7 mon of experience and if it is counted as hours it would be 3 yrs and with overtime it would be even more.

Thanks dishes to confirm. I read about this in ONA agreement. I have worked overtime at my previous job (more than 75 hours/ pay period), Does employer count overtime hours as working experience?

No I didn't take celban because I passed my Ielts.

Hello everyone I am a RN and recently got a new job. I also have previous RN experience in other province. I just want to know how many hours of work considered as 1 year of nursing experience for salary increment in Ontario? Thanks

There are no heart and stroke foundation BLS course in Ottawa.

From where you guys did your BLS? Heart and stroke foundation offers BLS for HCP © and canadian red cross have CPR for HCP.

But BLS has two type one is for anybody and other is for health care provider. Here i am referring to BLS for health care provider.

My BLS is expired and planning to go for certification. Is there any difference between BLS and CPR-HCP? I am just wondering because I have seen hospitals here ask for BCLS. And it is necessary to do standard or emergency first aid with the these certifications? I will appreciate your response.

I already wrote IELTS and waiting for the results. I am working so hard to complete this requirement and get my license. Now I am thinking to give one attempt of CELBAN too. There is one course for CELBAN preparation at CIMT college which is in Mississauga, however, I don't have any reviews for this course. Are you an IEN?

Thank you dishes, I found these websites really helpful.

. Thanks dishes for your help. Do you have any information regarding CELBAN?

Thanks Dishes! YMCA told me that I have to take advance courses and they only have TOFEL in that category. They do it have ielts course. I also went to algonquine with my test scores and they suggested that i don't need a full course. They gave me option for one to one tutoring on writing. I found celban content easier than ielts but unfortunately there is no preparation material.

I got 7.5 in all the ielts section and but my score in writing was 6.5. I know I have to improve my writing but the problem is the lack of sufficient time in the writing task of ielts.
