Thanks for the response...I just completed my internship... Are you saying UK is easier without job experience? And like how much is the prove of fund you spoke about?

vickyehi:

8.0 is an overall good attempt but what exactly are your individual band scores.
For you to be successful against the current CRS trend for canada, your ielts should be more than or equal to 8777 in LwRS.
You should be less than 31 with 2 evaluated degrees.

To be able to help you better,
Tell me the following details:
Age
Marital status
Years of work experience
Highest educational qualification
Knowledge of french
Sibling in canada

barbiee:

They also need your transcripts to assess your course work, hours of training etc, your certificate does not provide those details

vickyehi:

Not to discourage you or anything, but unlike other countries , canada requires you to be within canada to complete the credential process. This means that it is virtually impossible to complete the licensure processes without being a temporary or permanent resident of canada.

This is because along the evaluation process, you would be required to take exams in canada. You might be required to do a top up program also offered only in Canada.

The easiest way to immigrate to canada is the Express entry system and being a registered nurse doesnt give you any edge over a HR person.

Refer to the sister thread below for more information on Express entry.

My advice is to head to the uk first as it is cheaper and faster for you to start practicing.

Oga the question was not directed to you na..Pls allow the person that is already helping me with a good heart do so

Hello,

Has anyone in the UK with an RN attempted a BSc Nursing Top Up ? Online ?

Is it normal to be required to do a Professional Development in Health and Social Care module first ?.

Thanks.

Charltex:
Hello,

I'm not doing a top up online, but part time.

However, we're doing a module on "Evolving Health and Social Care Agenda" as our first module.

But I want to ask, is it not possible travelling to write Nclex in the philippines and then use it for Canada? I am not clear on this, I hear people talking about going there to write nclex alot? Pls throw in any info you have on this.

Dear all,
Please how long does it take NMC to reach out to Nursing and midwifery council for verification with this online process?
@Adayoung, @Kris28.......any answers?

CowbellY:


Thanks.

I was told Nigeria's RN is rated as Level 3.

Seems everyone has to do an associate first.

Please let's try to keep the conversation on this thread. That way, others can input into the advice and/or correct any misconceptions.
Thanks

Adayoung:
nmc uk sends a mail to nmcn immediately u pay ur application fee however nmcn take 2 weeks or more to respond to nmc uk

Kris28:


NMC UK has no issue at all. They reach out to NMCN almost immediately.
Login to your NMC profile to see if council verification has been indicated as *requested*

The only thing is that NMCN will not send a notification whether they got any mail. However, NMC UK is prompt enough, and you can also reach them through a phone call or an email to verify if a mail has been sent.

NurzCee:


You mean after you've bn made a UK RN or before?
Please verify yaa information well oo because I think you're wrong

CowbellY:


Yes but I also asked earlier.

Have you attempted a top-up ? Were you allowed to proceed directly into BSc Nursing without an associate/graduate module first ?.

NurzCee:

I've not attempted any top up yet, but I've got some good number of schools ready to accept just RN and after a year, you would be awarded BSc Nursing (Hons)

CowbellY:


If you can share them then, because someone else also confirmed that an associate certificate is requested.

Or perhaps you apply and share your experience so we can know better

NurzCee:


Are u a registered nurse? If yes, RN or BscN? For UK that I'm very sure about. They don't require any associate certificate. Let the person that told u so send the link here, so I can take a look at it. I have my own links if u wanna take a look at it

CowbellY:


But Charltex said the same thing as well... Sigh.. I'm not arguing with you. I actually want to be proved wrong, so I have a case to challenge with. That's why I brought it here.

Please show us the links. So I and Charltex can challenge this, if you know anyone who also didn't have to apply, perhaps you can share so we know what schools to apply to.

And it's RN
