I thought you have to be in Canada to complete the registration requirements?

Pls is it the same thing for registered midwives cos am in my last year of midwifery and I want to go to u.k when am done.
So is there any program for midwives also.
Anyone who knows about it should pls reply. Thanks in advance.

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
