WES vs NNAS

Published

Can i ask for an advise. I'm confused and I'm not even sure if my topic is even relevant in this forum. But still I'm looking forward to your response.

I am planning to move in Ontario and work as a LPN or RN. However, I can't decide as I'm not familiar about immigration. I don' t know which would be easier and less expensive, apply as an immigrant or international student? Either of the two, I was asked to have my credentials assessed by WES. If ever i submitted my documents to WES will the CON acknowledge it. Or they only accept credentials assessed by NNAS?

Sorry I made a mistake in the last part of my post. It should be," will the CNO acknowledge my credentials assessed by WES and not by NNAS?"

Looking at the CNO website they only accept NNAS.

Do you think it is safe to have my credentials assessed first before securing for visa?

You do realize registration with CNO will take time, a long time. You could try getting pr visa if that is the route you are planning on but will not be able to work as a nurse until registration is sorted
