First of all, if your just RN holder, u can't work as an RN in Canada, because when they evaluate your credentials, d gap would be much, but if u are head bent that u want to work an a Canadian RN, u would have to do some course of about one year or one year and a half( check up Omni college), depending on your ielts score. It's expensive too.but u can opt to work as a LPN(licensed practical nurse, which is a lower than the RN salaries) BscN people, u are good to go, just that they would ask for several paperwork, Dem many die aswear,and d institution would dhl it to them, not you. Later u would write their own exam, then if u pass u would get employed (pls I skipped some steps inbtw) no osce, just ielts and CRNE or CPNE, and, Canada here u come
Whole process is about 2years max

Another route is thru d express entry(either foreign skilled worker or provincial nominees program of which your CRS score must be high of which the fact that u are a nurse has made u already half way eligible aka na Dem dey rush us .... its achievable either for RN and BscN, remember Rn can't work as Rn there, u work as lpn there(until u upgrade yaa academics) . That one is another maze of its own. Bottom line is" it is achievable"

FOR AUSTRALIA, U DONT NEED TO WRITE ANY EXAM OOOH ASIDE IELTS...BUT ITS A MUST THAG U WOULD DO A BRIDGING COURSE WHEN U GET THERE. ITS FOR A YEAR OR 3 MONTHS OPTION. MOST NIGERIANS THERE DO THE 3 /MONTHS, AFTER THAT , WORK DON START BE THAT... JUST THAT AUSTRALIA FAR SHA...LOL

P.S: before u come here and start confusing me, do your research very well. So we can interact on the same bandwidth

I hope this helps someone... Cheers fam

I actually had a Skype interview with the university of the West Of Scotland 2 months ago and according to them I’ll be able to get registered as a nurse in the uk on completion of the course. I’m not so sure about getting a job.

Nobody owes you anything bro
If you need an answer toyour inquiry, you ask politely.
A lot of universities in the UK offer BSc Nursing top up program for 1year for already registered nurses.

Do well to make Google your friend �

Ogmoks:
Please does anyone know of any CBT center in Edo state. Thanks in anticipation

BEEJAY452:
can you please list the several paperwork that are required by the Canadian board of Nursing?

Besides, some have said it on this platform that no matter the university we graduated from and the grade, that we do not meet the Canadian Nursing requirements and that, it is a must for BNSc from Nigeria to do a year or 3months program and passed before one can be qualified to write the Canadian NCLEX or CRNE. please how do you allign this or what's your opinion on this?

Correcting some miscommunication
1.......Omni college is only to integrate you to the nursing environment in Canada. It is not the school where you fo the "bridging" program. The program offered by omni is NOT a substitute for the bridging the college of nursing may request for. However, the program at Omni may help prepare you for the assessment test and generally improve your chances because you would have started getting used to the basic gadgets. Note that people have completed their credential process without Omni, so it is not a part of the process. Also I know people who have completed Omni's program and are currently in the actual bridging programs for their licensure.

2......BScn graduates are not necessarily "good to go". You still have to do the OSCE and your performance at the OSCe is what determines how many courses would be required to bridge the educational gap. You only skip the OSCE assessment if your report from NNAS says "comparable to canadian education". I am yet to see a Nigerian graduate with such an assessment report from NNAS.

3.....For express entry, "the mind of them dey rush us" DOES NOT APPLY. express entry is not focused on you practicing as a nurse but it is STRICTLY AN IMMIGRATION PROCESS. Having a BSN as opposed to a Diploma is ENTIRELY IRRELEVANT to the process. A RN/RM Diploma holder may stand a better chance than a straight BScN. Except the BN holder can find a way to assess each component of their degrees separately (some people in the thread have been successful).
4........"remember Rn can't work as Rn there, u work as lpn there(until u upgrade yaa academics)"
The above statement is NOT TRUE. Although Canada's RN are Bachelor degree holders, there have also been cases of diploma nurses who scaled through the RN licensure process.

In conclusion, the Canadian licensure process is not a "one size fits all" kind of process. Until you start the process, you can not tell how long it would take you or whether or not your degree would scale through. It does help to have a BSN but having a BSN doesnt also mean that you would have it easy and fast. If you really want to practice in Canada, all you can do is to start the process and give your assessment OSCE your best shot (ie if NNAS gives you a report stating "noncomparable or somewhat comparable".

Canadian licensure is in 2 steps.
1.....getting to canada as a landed immigrant (study or permanent resident)
2......the licensure process.
Ensure you have a plan to be successful at both before you commit to it. Else just go to the States or uk or some other place.

- It takes 5years to get Independent leave to remain (ILR)
- It takes another one year after to get citizenship



UK
- Easier to migrate to as a Nurse
- If you are serious with it, it takes roughly 4months
- The pay is between £24k - £30k
- But it is work visa you will be given
- It takes 5yrs to get a resident permit
- Another 5yrs to get citizenship
- RN to BSN top up program in University of Sunderland takes about 12months and cost [b]£12k - #5,500,000[/]

NurzCee:

Thanks once again. Cheers
