You don't need GRE or IELTS to get into LSCM(University of Windsor)....It is waived for Nigerians.

Naijaforeigner:
Most universities don’t have the co-op option. If you have the CGPA that can get you into a masters in LSCM then you should consider that first. University of Windsor fees for 16 months in MSC LSCM equals what you will spend in 2 years of college for PGD LSCM.

Let me ask you a question, do you or your sponsor have the money at the moment to pay for 2 years in college or you only have money for 1 year?

Naijaforeigner:
Are you sure it is 12 months duration? It says 1 year program on school website does not mean it is 12 months, you need to confirm from the school if it is 2 or 3 semesters. I think it is most likely going to be an eight months program.

The poster you quoted usually recommends Connestoga on this thread probably because he is an alumni of the college.

I think you should search for 3 - 5 schools, compare and then choose the school that you prefer. I will also suggest, if you decide to go for Logistics and Supply Chain Management, choose a school that offers the program with co-op.

Is 1 year PGWP enough time to look for job and process PR? It depends on so many factors which has been discussed some weeks back on this thread. Links attached below.

Hello Laurendee,

The common similar between the two is that they are both done after a first degree. In brief, a PBD can easily pave a switch to another area or field of study and can as well use to support a weak first degree.

A PGC can be done to acquire an academic knowledge/certificate in a developing or new professional interest line.

For more info, you can google.

The 20 months program is equivalent to 2yrs. Most programs in some/almost all schools runs for 8 months making it 16 months for a 2yrs program. This qualify you for a 3yr PGWP.

All the best.

I will suggest you to go for Supply Chain Management - Global which is a Post graduate course in Conestoga College

What is your definition of a good choice?

ICaSNg:
You can start your Irish Nursing license processing from Nigeria so far you have at least 2/3 years full time work experience- Its very straightforward and similar to the Canadian WES process.

If you however choose to go for a masters in Nursing, you have automatic 2 years work permit but you still need to get your Irish nursing permit sorted before you can practise as a Nurse in Ireland.

Cheers

Hi, this is a tough question I must admit. I wanna believe the RN in question doesn’t have a Bachelor’s degree of any kind?? If yes, then the person can only get evaluated for the LPN category via NNAS, as you need a university degree for RN now. Also if the person wants to solely “work” then he/she must have PR plans in place as its a herculean task to get an LPN employer without having at least a work or study permit / PR and a license.
Getting admission into a Canadian uni would be a better option cuz u’d have a study permit which allows u work and pursue NNAS at the same time, but it’s not a cheap option cuz u’d be paying for tuition and licensure waka. Better option would be to get admission for a Postgraduate nursing course in either Niagara college or one of the colleges in Ontario. Expensive but can grant you PR and licensure in the long run. Best of luck!

Laurendee:
I have some clarifications please and would like if anyone here could help. If I start my NNAS application from Nigeria and I get my advisory report and all and I have to leave for Canada for the other exams when I apply to the board. 1. What type of visa would I apply for and what documents would I submit in order to be granted a visa
2. I’m about to finish my bsc nursing and would like a masters in nursing in Canada but I checked the requirements and I have to be licensed as a nurse in the particular province to be eligible for the masters. So my question is what way is the best for me to pursue this.
I don’t know if this is a good idea, but I was thinking of maybe applying for a masters in maybe public health just to get a student visa for entry into Canada for the purpose of completing all necessary things to get registered as a nurse in Canada, then after I get it I’d apply for the masters in nursing.

I don’t really know if it’s a good idea but I really advice.

Try choose between Ontario and Nova Scotia. Pls avoid Manitoba

IyaEjima:
Hi, I’m a Nigerian/Canadian RN, I did go through NNAS (but I graduated from EBSU not OAU). Everyone I know with a Nigerian degree so far has gottten “not-comparable” as their outcome for RN evaluation. Regardless, the different provincial regulatory bodies decide if you’ll get licensed (or what the next step would be) based on your competence assessment / OSCE results.
