Professional Nurse Examination?

Pls cn any1 give me info(web addy,phone nos)  on d profesional nursing examination which is being done  in ghana or nigeria. D exam is for registerd nurses.   

If your interest is to practice nursing in the USA, contact Pearson VUE or the Nursing Board of the State you wish to practice.  Pearson will provide you with the information on centers and application process. 

However, you apply to Pearson through a state nursing board.  Any state will do.  Oncce you pass the exam in one state you can wave into any other state, and you do not have to re-take the exam.  Incidentally, passing the exam automatically gets you a green card because of the serious nursing shortage in the U.S.  Starting salary is $60,000 and in some states (Alaska), as high as $100,000.

NCLEX (National Council Licensure EXamination) is an examination for the licensing of nurses in the United States.  NCLEX examinations are developed and owned by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, Inc. (NCSBN). NCSBN administers these examinations on behalf of its member boards which consist of the boards of nursing in the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and four U.S. territories American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands and the Virgin Islands.  NCLEX examinations are provided in a computerized adaptive testing (CAT) format and are presently administered by Pearson VUE in their network of Pearson Professional Centers (PPC).

Bintap may be absolutely right.  I am not a nurse and I have never even heard of a CGFNS.  So, please go with her.  I only know that when I hire nurses who are not from the U.S., I require that they realize they can’t just practice nursing because they were nurses back home.  Once they have their state Board certification; my attorneys clear their immigration status immediately and without any problems.  That is the extent of my very limited knowledge.  I let the attorney guys handle all the paperwork.  Good luck.

This organisation is not accepted/recognised in the USA.

Thanks for the link. I just checked the site. It is for government jobs only and seems to require citizens only. Do you know anyone who changed his status from F1 to work permit through this particular site? Look forward to your response.

that's good enough. i can still help u more on what u need about proffessional nursing exams. but u can still visit http://onlinedegree-olasco.blogspot.com/    4 more info.

There are others individual agencies,i cannot remnber their names but if you google find a job as a nurse in usa thre will be many links.

What are you insinuating.Your blog carries no actual information that can help in anyway.Online degrees are not accepted in most organisation except as a post grad.

Well, i had a B.SC Chemistry in Nigeria with good knowledge of chemical analysis of food and drugs. When i moved to USA , it was very difficult to get a job. I managed to get a job with a popular food company, cound you believe that a Nigerian who was suppose to be my supervisor fired me the first week on the job. This is because my CV was a treat to him. To cut the long story short,  i went to a country side (remote area) to study nursing. I passed my Nclex board exam already and now work as a Licensed Vocational Nurse. During the period in school, i met an African lady in the hospital where i did my clinicals and she said the hospital assisted her with her paper to come to the US.
For those who have passed the first step of the board exam in Nigeria or Nigerian nurses who passed one or two steps already, i can give the details of few hospital in Texas who can hire such individuals. The hospital will assist with the papers for the visa. But however, such people are made to sign a bond to work for the hospital and they will be paid for less for about 3 years. After 3 years they assist with papers to stay in the US. If you need this info or any other info, i can help to my best knowledge.
From, Good Samaratan.
