There is nothing stopping you from contacting employers via the Internet but be aware many may want nurse experience. Also depends on which province you are wanting to work in as you may be required to do some assessments. Would also recommend a phone call a couple weeks later and check up on application/job etc. If wanting to work as a graduate and sit CRNE then need a TWP which does require a employer, could then look at PNP once you have passed CRNE and get permanent residency

Meant to add, any questions regarding TWP immigration etc to Canada to be asked in the International forum but would suggest first you have a search and read of the threads already there regarding moving to Canada to work. If it is just questions about life and actual work in Canada please post in this forum

TWP temp work permit and PNP provincial nominee program. If you check out the CIC website it will explain what each one is, how it works and what you have to do

Emmhemmmm. Please pay attention to the topic into which you're posting, dear members. This thread is on registering for the CRNE.

hello, i got my eligibility to sit for CRNE at nova scotia., but i will be landing this march at toronto. they say i have to undergo another process of assessment,that's why i started all over again... i have started studying and preparing for CRNE, can anyone help me on how to avail books like mosby's and lippincott?. or when can i buy this books while im still here in the philippines. thank you.

if this questions about books is against the policy, so sorry... i am new member here..hoping for understanding.

This question has been asked and answered several (dozen) times. You can buy the study guides from the colleges of Nursing, which all have bookstores, and they're available through Amazon.ca and chaptersindigo.ca. The shipping costs to the Philippines are VERY high though so if you have a family member or friend already here, get them to pick them up for you and mail them.

Of course you have to undergo another assessment now that you've changed where you intend to write the exam. Because applications aren't made to write the exam but actually to become registered in that province, changing provinces means reapplying. And each province assesses slightly differently, so being given a green light in one province does not automatically mean that another province will do the same.

yah, i already got my eligibility to take CRNE but i got it at Nova scotia Canada. I have applied for immigrant and i chose to land at Ontario where my sister lives. That's why i went to assessment again at Ontario (college of nurses of ontario). I have paid the assessment fees. and still waiting for their decision. Im still here in the Philippines and will be leaving this march.

Hi nurselen... Just a thought... Are you considering being based in Ontario? In my opinion, why not land in Ontario but take the exam in Nova Scotia... And if you've passed the CRNE and given the chance to work in Nova Scotia, why not grab it... Just a thought...
