Guys meron akong nareceived na email sa CNO regarding my application for assessment. Any advise which of the 2 options they gave me is really appreciated. Maraming Salamat!
We are writing to provide you with information regarding the evaluation of your nursing education.
Upon initial review of your application, the College of Nurses of Ontario (College) has determined that you have not completed an approved or equivalent nursing program. As a result, you are required to complete an evaluation of your nursing knowledge, skill and judgment and to successfully complete any additional education and/or training identified by the evaluation.
The evaluation will take place on ***** , or a subsequent date at:
The Centre for the Evaluation of Health Professionals Educated Abroad
80 Bloor Street West
Toronto, ON M5S 2V1
The evaluation consists of a short, multiple choice written test and an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), during which you will be rotated through simulated, scripted clinical situations using trained actors.
Upon completion of the evaluation, CEHPEA will forward your results to the College for review. Once the College has reviewed the results, you will be advised in writing about whether you meet the nursing education requirement or if you are required to complete additional education and/or training to meet the nursing education requirement.
Further information regarding the evaluation can be found on the College’s website at www.cno.org/osce.
You now have one of three options to proceed with your application:
1. Complete the evaluation by CEHPEA - Check “Attend for CEHPEA
evaluation” on the enclosed form and then sign and return the form to the College. Once
we have received your request to attend for the evaluation, you will be contacted by
CEHPEA regarding the online registration process and the date you will be required to
attend. An administrative fee of $200.00, payable to CEHPEA, is required at the time of
completing the online registration, which will reserve your scheduled date and time for
the evaluation. This administrative fee will be refunded to you upon completion of the
evaluation. Please note that selecting this option acknowledges your willingness to attend
the evaluation. To facilitate the process, the College and CEHPEA will exchange
information relating to the evaluation.
2. Request a review of your application by the Registration Committee – You
have the right to request a review of the decision requiring you to complete this
evaluation. Check “Review by Registration Committee” on the enclosed form and then
sign and return the form to the College. Once we have received your request, the College
will advise you of the date upon which your application will be referred to the
Registration Committee for review.
3. Withdraw your application – Check “Request for Withdrawal” on the enclosed
form and then sign and return the form to the College if you are no longer interested in
pursuing registration with the College. Once we have received request for withdrawal,
you will receive a letter from the College confirming that your application has been
closed. The withdrawal of your application would not, in any way, affect your right to
make a new application. Any new application for registration would be evaluated based
on the registration requirements in effect at the time of that application.
