  1. IEN RN in Canada

    What country did you receive your nursing education? Don't worry about appealing and getting re-assessed. Just apply to CNO and they will give you the opportunity to submit your nursing work...
  2. NNAS experience?

    Unfortunately Vanessa, you are one of many. You can have those mistakes corrected, and I would if I were you, however, it is not likely to have any impact on the final outcome of your non-comparable...
  3. NNAS experience?

    wait, do you have your Advisory Report
  4. NNAS experience?

    Yes you can still apply to the licensing body. They will be the ones to tell you what to do next. They might ask you to take a bridge program, or do an exam, or not. But the only way to move...
  5. NNAS experience?

    You've got that right. INSANE. The worst part is, provincial licensing bodies know this. They aren't actually worried that an applicant with a BSN from the US who works there as a RN is unfit to...
  6. Question about CNO

    I believe they will evaluate your credentials regardless of whether you take jurisprudence right away. It can be taken at any point prior to licensing (just in case others are worried that they have...
  7. Rn in Italy become an Rn in Ontario

    I was educated in the US and was non-comparable and had to take IENCAP even though so many people before me, for years and years, were accepted by CNO after having a degree from the university where I...
  8. Rn in Italy become an Rn in Ontario

    I don't think IENs get PR status through work. They are PRs already before they apply for their nursing
  9. Rn in Italy become an Rn in Ontario

    @Casoclinico What @dishes meant by the detail about engineers is that engineers are in the same situation as nurses in Ontario. There are very few jobs and many applicants for these professional,...
  10. NNAS experience?

    It is no longer mandatory to have nursing work experience HOWEVER, this means that the process might be even longer or more difficult for you. Right now, some applicants have the option of submitting...
  11. Rn in Italy become an Rn in Ontario

    @Casoclinico I'm not sure how you will work on a tourist visa. I believe you would need a work visa. The 20 month program at York does not have many spaces and it is difficult to get into. Some...
  12. Career change to Nursing in Canada

    Name of the nursing program doesn't matter. All have to meet the same expectations to become a RN in the end. Some schools try to be snobby but to be honest, I have many friends and colleagues from...
  13. Question about CNO

    If what you are really hoping to do is practice as a physician in Ontario, I would recommend putting all of your efforts into that. Becoming a RN in Ontario is a long process for IEN's and likely not...
  14. Question about CNO

    Jurisprudence doesn't mean anything other than that you applied to CNO. All applicants are welcome to take it once they have applied to CNO and it is a requirement in order to obtain a license but...
  15. NNAS experience?

    Yes it's pretty much the same exam. The handbook is the same. You can find it on Touchstone Institute's website....
  16. Question about CNO

    @panos Be prepared for your education to be "non-comparable". I am US educated with a 4 year BSN from a reputable university and I am non-comparable. I had to do the
  17. Ontario Vulnerable police check

    You didn't have to get one in order to obtain your nursing license from
  18. NNAS experience?

    Hi all, The minutes from the March CNO Council meeting were posted (finally, 3 months after the meeting--I wonder why they never post the minutes of the previous meeting until a few days before the...
  19. Oh okay, other provinces would require you to do the exam then too, since the minimum requirement is BSN/BScN in Canada. Worth checking anyway, just in case there was another way around it. It's the...
  20. What school did you obtain your nursing degree? I am also US educated and took IENCAP. If it helps any, I'll say that while you should definitely study and prepare, relax a little--our US education...
  21. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    Yes I get it but see what I'm saying...the purpose of NNAS is to find out what content is covered in the program... Seems they have changed how they assess and what is comparable, somewhat comparable...
  22. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    Thanks for the info @dishes. Didn't know about this. There must be some universities in Philippines that had a similar partnership too then maybe. If this person did attend that university I...
  23. NNAS experience?

    Yes exactly how it should be, I agree nicu_gal I read over the ARNAP Participant Guide and it's almost the exact same verbatim. The expectations for the exam are the same since the competencies are...
  24. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    No response to my inquiry from NNAS head office. Quite disappointed at the lack of accountability. Not to stir the pot, but I'm stirring the pot... There is a nurse educated in Pakistan who...
  25. NNAS experience?

    Hmmm... I'm not sure about that one @jiggsling23. Did NNAS say you were somewhat comparable to RN? Or to LPN/RPN? If RN, I'm not sure those hours will count or not. A quick call to CARNA should be...
