Thank you for breaking the process down in such a a concise way. I knew the overview but never seen anyone break down the NNAS and regulatory body parts step by step. I lived in Canada for a few years but came back to my home country to do my nursing degree. Definitely want to begin this process when I graduate.
This was sooooo helpful. I honestly never knew I could skip the Work experience part.. I've been thinking of how I was going to spend extra years to gain work experience before starting the NNAS process. Thanks a lot sis.😊😊😊
You are a wonderful personality. Thank you for this very valuable information, it's not easy to think about others while making your own journey and it's not easy to shine the light so others don't make same mistakes you made. Thanks Nneka. Quick question is does Canada RN require the NCLEX exam?
@@lorientheresa4844 I'm sorry about your plight my friend but i was once in your shoes before i was recommended to Mrs Catherina Alison and that's how i passed My Nclex exam
After using uworld twice and failing, I never knew I could ever pass the NCLEX but today I am very happy, I just passed my NCLEX on my third attempt with a great help for Mrs Catherina..
Hello… I am a registered nurse in the UK, I also have my USRN, I am thinking on how to move to Canada due ti the retrogression for the IS visa… please how do I go about it
thank u so much for this video. when u said that u got ur diploma in Ukraine, i was in pleasant shock. I also from Ukraine, and really dont know from where i must start.
Thank you for breaking down the process in an understandable manner, I love it and it’s well appreciated👏🏻👍❤️ So I want to ask, is RPN different from RN? Also what about LPN? Pls I’ll love to send you a DM for more enquiries, where can I do that?🙏🏼
Thank you so much for this very explanatory and easy to follow video. Please I have a question, you said internships doesn’t count as work experience. Does that include the one year compulsory internship we do here in Nigeria after study (not while in school) because I was planning to use that as my work experience
Hello, please I am a diploma nurse back home in Ghana, Currently in cAnada studying pharmacy technician program. Can I still start this process whiles in cAnada?
Please i need your guidance. There is new pilot program for some providence like BC . I applied but the process is different from what you described. Via NCAS. Please I need your assistance.
For Nigerians who get a not comparable advisory report, what's the way forward. Will a masters in public health bridge the gap or a diploma in postgraduate nursing instead?
Hi dear thank you very much for the information. I really love your videos . Please may I know which course you offered in Canada as your 1 year program?
Thank you for this video. Nneka does this whole process apply to midwives? ... I just hope so oo. And is there a midwifery regulatory body one can register with it Canada?
It’s called the SPEP program by CNO. This link will help you understand more about it www.cno.org/en/become-a-nurse/registration-requirements/evidence-of-practice/supervised-practice-experience/
So not having any nursing experience did not make you eligible to get the RN license? Wow that’s scary to me because I don’t want to really stay in my home country too long before leaving. Or do you think it’s because you didn’t have a license in any other country compounded with the lack of experience why you didn’t qualify for the RN?
Hi Nneka, I have a few questions but your video answered most of it. So as a newly graduated BSc Nurse in Nigeria, you're required to do 1 year post-study internship at approved hospitals. You said internships aren't considered as work experience but can't this post-study one which lasts for 12 months be considered as one as it's actually more than the regular clinicals or placements during school.
Wow! Thanks for this information….. I want to ask as an international student in canada, what course did you study and were you able to work as a nurse aide while you were studying
Hi Nneka, please is it possible for international students to apply for practical nursing in Canada? If yes, which colleges? Also, I have a BSc in Health promotion, can I use that to apply or just WAEC?
Hello , pls I need your help, I'm a diploma RN, RM from Nigeria, wanna migrate to Canada using the study pathway,. ... I don't have a degree yet, what course can I do, is their a bridging course over there and how
Hey nneka! About the documents that my school would send to nnas via mail,nnas said it must be enveloped please i don't really understand i was thinking maybe i'd tell my school to send it in pdf via mail. Please can you buttress that point for me
Hey girl, Yes! Documents sent by a third party should be sent by mail or courier All documents (not original) from the school must be stamped with the schools official seal, be placed in an envelope (which should be sealed) and that envelope should also have the stamp from the school on the seal. I hope this helps! Feel free to ask more questions
I have a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering but I want to flip the switch… do I need to start as an undergraduate student or can I get like a two -three year school of nursing like we do in Nigeria… Is this possible in Canada.
Meaning from google 😂❤️ “ a public officer who attests or certifies writings (such as a deed) to make them authentic and takes affidavits, depositions, and protests of negotiable paper”
Hsi nneka.. Iam from India.. I have completed my diploma nursing.. I have 5 years of work experience.. Shall I get job/RN canada.. Or need to complete pcbsc.. Pls reply..
@@nnekaezeanya. Also, regarding the documents you had to authenticate did you do them in Canada? Or one can authenticate the documents anywhere they are even if they are not in Nigeria?
Thanks Nneka I have learnt something on this video my question is what if you don't have a degree in nursing but am a nurse aide which course can one do if I come to Canada atleast to get a job in hospital industry later....
Hi. Thanks a lot for this. I'm a nurse/midwife in Nigeria. Have been longing to go to Canada to work. While here, do i have to register with NNAS & then CNO? What is their ielts required band. And please how long do all these process take. Also, is there anyway i can apply as a nurse aid or Nursing ass, & be taken to work there b4 all these processes are completed? Waiting 4 ur reply. Thanks
1. Yes, you have to register with NNAS before CNO 2. You might not need to write ielts. (Explained in the video) 3. Process time was mentioned in the video 4. Yes you definitely can.
please i’ll like to know if there’s a place / school where you can go to refresh your knowledge, like before the exams so you know that you’re sure you read things in the curriculum
Thanks sis,your videos have actually been helpful, please I will want you to kindly respond to my questions, like I'm a graduate nurse and want to come for masters in nursing there,would you advice I start my Canadian licensing process while doing my masters or wait till I'm done with my masters, also can one with one who had written the US nclex RN exam be allowed to practice as a registered nurse in Canada or one have to be registered as a Canadian RN
When going through some schools requirements for masters program in nursing, i noticed that you’d need to have your license in nursing as an RN before you can undergo their master’s program. Some schools also require some work experience as well! You’d need to do more research on this though as some schools requirements might differ! But I’d advice you start processing your license first!
Thanks for this video, I learned a lot but I have a question please. So are you saying as an international nurse with a degree but without license and experience the only option is to be a LPN in canada
Would you advice someone to try and get admission as a RPN since the process will take close to 2years and RPN is a 2years program? To me I feel since it’s a long process, one should just apply as a student to start afresh. I feel it’s same timeframe. But for those evaluating to RPN. If you’re evaluating for RN then I feel it’s worth the wait. My opinion though.

Yes! Every RN in canada must successfully pass the NCLEX exam to be registered
Well I've taken the exams for the second time now and still didn't succeed, i wonder how those who succeeded did it🥺😭
I failed 3 times, i lost money to reviews that never helped but the major thing is that I've not lost hope

Yes. Every work experience

Dear, Is the registration exam the same as nclex?
For RPN it’s called Rex-pn; For the RN it’s called NCLEX
@@nnekaezeanya. so basically, NNAS reviews the application before you know the registration exam one has been qualified to take right?
@@nnekaezeanya. Also, regarding the documents you had to authenticate did you do them in Canada?
Or one can authenticate the documents anywhere they are even if they are not in Nigeria?
nneka, i’m a big fan . Please i’ll like to know if i can come in for a post graduate diploma instead of masters degree?… which do you think is better
It all depends on personal preference gurl. Both are great
Thanks Nneka I have learnt something on this video my question is what if you don't have a degree in nursing but am a nurse aide which course can one do if I come to Canada atleast to get a job in hospital industry later....
You could try the personal support worker program.
With the ielts is it academic or general
Academic
Can you use your US nursing license in Canada?
No
Hey Nneka, how long is your clinical placement?
It was for 6/8weeks
Hi. Thanks a lot for this. I'm a nurse/midwife in Nigeria. Have been longing to go to Canada to work. While here, do i have to register with NNAS & then CNO? What is their ielts required band.

@@nnekaezeanya. Nigerians don't need ielts for NANS??
hi sis pls is three months enough to apply for study visa. Please i'll be on standby for your prompt response 🙏🏾
Just visa or also your schools admission?
If visa, I’d say its doable but both, it’s tricky!
@@nnekaezeanya. pls just Visa
Omg this is what im looking for. I will be done my degree next june and want to move canada asap
I hope this video helps🤗❤️
@@nnekaezeanya. yes it really help 👌
Is NUCLEX required?
Yes 👍🏾
please i’ll like to know if there’s a place / school where you can go to refresh your knowledge, like before the exams so you know that you’re sure you read things in the curriculum
I used Uworld.
Don’t know about a refresher course but Uworld is pretty good and comes with rationales
Thanks sis,your videos have actually been helpful, please I will want you to kindly respond to my questions, like I'm a graduate nurse and want to come for masters in nursing there,would you advice I start my Canadian licensing process while doing my masters or wait till I'm done with my masters, also can one with one who had written the US nclex RN exam be allowed to practice as a registered nurse in Canada or one have to be registered as a Canadian RN

You’d need to do more research on this though as some schools requirements might differ!
But I’d advice you start processing your license first!
In preparation for both registration and jurisprudence exam,which materials would one use to ace the exams?
For registration, I used uworld and Mosby’s
For jurisprudence, CNO has a document on their website you can read through to help you with the exam.
Thanks for this video, I learned a lot but I have a question please. So are you saying as an international nurse with a degree but without license and experience the only option is to be a LPN in canada
No I’m not saying that.
NNAS will decide that after they go through your documents
Ok
Thank you
Please can you make a video about internationally trained midwifes
Nneka,are you from Igboukwu?Thanks for the video,If someone is not in Canada doing this process,what is the best way to come into Canada?
I’d say as a student
Would you advice someone to try and get admission as a RPN since the process will take close to 2years and RPN is a 2years program?
To me I feel since it’s a long process, one should just apply as a student to start afresh. I feel it’s same timeframe. But for those evaluating to RPN. If you’re evaluating for RN then I feel it’s worth the wait. My opinion though.
Definitely!
You can definitely take this route or better still shoot for the RN program
IELTS everywhere 😭omo!!!
I know right😂 But you won’t need one if your first language is in English
Lmao this process choke 😂😂😂!! I bet it's even more hectic than admission and study permit process together
Not really
It’s the waiting game that’s more infuriating 🤣
@@nnekaezeanya. Glad you came out successful!
