Hi,
RPN in Canada is not comparable to ADN in the US. Both RNs and RPNs are both BSN holders. I was in the same boat and did my NNAS using ADN. I applied to BCCNP with ADN. After I got my BSN, I contacted BCCNP and told them that I got my BSN after the NNAS process had completed. They were okay with this and all I did was ask my college to send my BSN confirmation to BCCNP, and subsequently received RN licensure. I would advice you to go ahead and apply to NNAS with your current ADN and then apply for licensure after you get your BSN. You don't need to do a new report after you get your BSN (unless you're willing to spend an extra $650 and wait another year). I could send you the email that I received from NNAS after I graduated with a BSN, where they told me to contact BCCNP instead, since I had already applied for licensure. They couldn't give me a license with the ADN (which I knew beforehand), but they kept my application until after I received a BSN. After that, the process was super quick (a couple of months tops).
All the best on your move here. Ask me anything you wish.
Thanks so much for your reply. You can forward the email to okoliechidinma@yahoo.com.

I have a few questions too. Please at what point in this whole process did you apply for a job? Did you pay for both RN and RPN for NNAS? What other province did you chose during your application? Was wondering if I should go through express entry or provisional normination program?

Thanks for your time.

Hi, thank you for the reply. I received my advisory reports for both RN and RPN on Feb 20. Wasn't really expecting to get RPN this soon! :D
I tried making an account with CNO but I'm just not getting the authentication link in my email from CNO. Do they take some time to send the authentication mail?
Hi,

yes, sometimes it takes few business days to get activate. Let me know if your account get activate already ?

Hi there,
In which province have you applied ? As it depend upon the province board of Nursing. Also, what about the Nursing License exams ? Are they already done or are you waiting to write down them

It depends, in which province did you apply with NNAS ?
I'm here in B.C..
I have another question, sorry a lil out of topic on this thread, I asked this question to the other forum but nobody gave me an answer, I wonder if u have an idea.. so here it goes ....

regarding celban listening,so you are listening to an audio /video , then you will fill in the blanks with words or phrases ,like:
1. Employed as ______.
The answer should be ,an electrician.
But you only write electrician.will that makes your answer wrong? Or will it still count as correct?another example is , the correct answer is , venctricles, then you only write ventricle, will they mark my answer as correct.?
Thank u
