Hi canimmigrant!

Thank you for replying to my post my fellow sagittarian..

I already sent the option form last June 14 through fax. I emailed them and they said they already received it.

I think I'll eventually be given the BET form. I have just started with my Masterals and I only have 2 years of working experience. Although i have spent more than 8 years in tertiary education because of the two degrees I earned, CNO didn't credit it. Mainly because they are totally different.

When I come to the BET part I hope I can get tips from you guys..

The matter of unemployed nurses just shocked me when I saw some posts in allnurses.com. However, just recently I got connected to a friend of mine in Ontario and he said it's not true. Nurses are still needed there. It's just that some of the Filipino nurses he knows are not yet registered with CNO either because of the tedious and/or long application process or because of the CRNE.

You are indeed a sagittarian. Optimistic.. :) Let's stay that way.. And I hope all of the forumers and Filipino RNs applying for CNO registration stay positive as well. Let's have faith in HIM. God bless everyone...

will definitely give you tips, provided maging positive ang result ng assessment ko... ;D otherwise, la din kwenta ang magiging suggestions ko hahahaha!

di naman sa sinisiraan ko sila sa allnurses... i have been very vocal about my dislike of the forums there... sabi ko nga, hindi lang pala tayong mga pinoy ang talangka hahahaha!... buti nga may mga kaibigan din ako sa toronto telling me that there are still jobs for nurses like us... tama ka, yung iba ayaw lang magpa register at magastos at mahirap daw...

basta it's just a matter of perspective... i am forever positive, if i can manage it hahaha! kaya pag may mga nega, just distance yourself from them... walang hindi nakukuha sa dasal, sabi nga ng nanay ko... ;)

goodluck and keep us posted here of your progress...

Hi Envouge!

Sorry I can't reply to PMs as I am new in this site. I think I need a minimum # of posts (don't know about the exact # though) before I can reply to PMs. Your email doesn't show in your profile so I can't reply to you either. However, here is the answer to your question:

"i just wanna ask with regards to additional. nursing education that they requested if ano yung sinubmit mo? since the 1st time the school submitted our verification of education, like TOR, & course description, parang included naman dun lahat? so i was thinking kung ano pa yung kulang?& ano pa ang pwedeng i submit to them..." I think what they mean by additional nursing education would be TOR/diploma if you have finished MAN/MSN. In my case, I have just started my masterals and it would be a long way to go before I finish it. I would not be sending that form instead. So if you have finished MAN then your credentials are what they want you to submit.


This is what I know of. Others may contest if they have a different opinion.
