  1. NNAS experience?

    RN_Pro replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

    Thanks @iggsling23 Congrats on the somewhat comparable report!!!! Where did you receive your nursing education? That's awesome, I think CARNA will respond

  2. NNAS experience?

    RN_Pro replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

    Yes exactly. It's one less requirement to meet! Soon Alberta will add Jurisprudence also. Don't worry though, in Ontario anyway, it was a fair exam and as long as you prepare for it, it's perfectly...

  3. US IENs in Ontario, Canada

    RN_Pro replied to abbyg13's topic in Nurse Registration

    @abbyg13 I've written about this on another thread but just wanted to point out to you that there is an applicant who was educated in Pakistan who received a "somewhat comparable" NNAS Advisory Report...

  4. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    Just an FYI: There is an applicant on another forum who was educated in Pakistan and received "somewhat comparable" on her NNAS Advisory Report. She was not required to submit anything further...

  5. NNAS experience?

    RN_Pro replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

    Hmmm... I wish I could say I was surprised. I also wish I could say that I was surprised that NNAS head office in TO hadn't responded to my inquiry. I will be persistent though. With the government...

  6. What Can I Do With A BSN? (Without a license).

    RN_Pro replied to Chloe Price's topic in General Nursing

    I second that suggestion. In the scope of the rest of your life, it is more than worth the investment.

  7. NNAS experience?

    RN_Pro replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

    I am wondering if anyone on this thread has ever received an email from NNAS requesting that they fill out any sort of customer satisfaction survey. The reason I am asking is that in their latest...

  8. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    RN_Pro replied to nicu_gal's topic in Canada

    Thank you @Parasol, much

  9. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    RN_Pro replied to nicu_gal's topic in Canada

    Thanks so much for the insight @Parasol ! Smooth move on NNAS's part--to survey before applicants even have real experience with the company and the process. I wish I had received this survey!...

  10. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    RN_Pro replied to nicu_gal's topic in Canada

    Hi @dishes, I have a request out to the head office in Toronto for more details about the survey, as well as the absence of the salary line in the financial report. No response yet but I will...

  11. NNAS- Canadian citizens with US education/licensure

    RN_Pro replied to nicu_gal's topic in Canada

    The NNAS Annual Report for 2016 is now available. For those who don't have time to read it I will summarize a few interesting points. 1) IEN satisfaction with NNAS is now up to 92.5% !! As wait times...

  12. How to transform from nurse in Egypt to nurse in Canada with details pls

    RN_Pro replied to Elshazly's topic in Nurse Registration

    You cannot work in Canada as a nurse using your degree from Cairo. It is most likely that your degree from Cairo will be designated "non-comparable" to a Canadian nursing education and further steps...

  13. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    Okay maybe "droves" was not the right word to use, I just meant that the % of applicants who were considered comparable was a heck of a lot higher than it is now (, and if we were to believe that NNAS...

  14. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    You are correct, licensing bodies only require the report to be completed in order to apply. But some applicants don't understand that and have submitted appeals because they feel their report wasn't...

  15. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    The competencies are most definitely contained in the curricula (speaking of my own syllabi anyway). Maybe not the exact wording, but this is where I feel it is vital to have actual nurses conducting...

  16. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    Yes I understand the competencies NNAS is based on, as well as the fact that there could be some US educated nurses whose education was not comparable prior to NNAS. However, there are many...

  17. Visascreen

    RN_Pro replied to ellenp's topic in International Nursing

    For a TN visa, the purpose is to prove that your education is equivalent to an American education in the subject you studied/profession you are entering. So no point in getting it really until you...

  18. TN Visa Letter

    RN_Pro replied to carly.melissa's topic in Immigration Advice

    You'll need an end date as well. Mine was somewhere around the 3 year mark. If your hospital has a recruiter, go talk to them. They may already have a template you can

  19. TN Visa Letter

    RN_Pro replied to carly.melissa's topic in Immigration Advice

    Also, there must be a start date. I got turned away at the border because I didn't have that. The US gov website is not clear at all and you are right, its all hit or miss depending on the border...

  20. An international trained nurse

    RN_Pro replied to Don12's topic in International Nursing

    Although there are not guarantees of course, if I were to choose one now, I would choose BC. Lately it seems that BC is the most likely to license a nurse who's education was deemed

  21. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    It might be more accurate than what was used in the past, but, it is still a far cry from being an accurate measure of how well an IEN's education meets Canadian equivalent. It is not catching some...

  22. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    @dishes I agree with you on the point about lack of transparency as well as inconsistency with the Agreement on International Trade. You make a good point about differences between provinces meaning...

  23. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

    I would have thought you'd have to do the assessment too, given the focus on mental health and therapeutic communication within Canadian nursing

  24. CRNBC - Indian graduate got RN license

    RN_Pro replied to Esha22's topic in Nurse Registration

  25. NNAS experience?

    RN_Pro replied to jmariel's topic in Nurse Registration

    When I showed that my education was all in English, my english proficiency was
