SETTLEMENT PLAN PART I.

Hi everyone, I have some questions here. Hope you can help me..
For a regulated profession such as nurses, how will i address this questions:
1. If your occcupation is regulated, can you start the licensing process before you arrive? YES/NO (I answered NO, am i right?)
If yes, pls explain what steps will take to start the licensing process before you arrive in manitoba.
2. If your occupation is not regulated, what steps will you take before you arrive in Manitoba to ensure you find skilled employment soon after arriving? (do i need to answer this one if my occupation is regulated? or i just leave it blank?
3. Are you planning to upgrade your job skills before you arrive in manitoba?
YES/NO If yes, explain what steps you will take to upgrade your job skills.
4. Some occupations require higher language proficiency to be employable in manitoba. Do you have the language ability required to start employment in a skilled occupation after you arrive? YES/NO (If i say yes here, should i take the IELTS Academic then before arriving in manitabo someday?

Hope you will enlighten me with these questions for those NURSES who had already submitted their applications. Thank you in advance.

I've done some searching.

As an internationally educated nurse, your first step to becoming a nurse in Canada is to apply to have your qualifications assessed by the National Nursing Assessment Service (NNAS):
http://www.nnas.ca/

Following the assessment you would apply to the College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba:
http://www.crnm.mb.ca/applicants-international-requirements.php

I haven't seen anything to suggest that you cannot apply for NNAS prior to arriving in Canada.


You will need to prove that your English language level is sufficient for your particular job. Registered nurses have a NOC of 3012, which is a skill level A job. You can take either an IELTS, or a CELPIP test. My understanding is that you would need to take the 'general' exam, not the 'academic' version.

Hi,
Thanks alot for your time to help me asnwer this questions. So maybe i should answer YES for the question of "can you start the licensing process before you arrive" .

I already had IELTS-GEneral Training so maybe i should say YES also for (do you have language ability required to start employment in skilled occupation...)

What about this: If your occupation is not regulated, what steps will you take before you arrive in Manitoba to ensure you find skilled employment sson after arriving in manitoba? (will i give answers to this even if my occupation RN is regulated?

Thank you again.

I would recommend contacting NNAS first, just to make sure that you can start the process before arriving.


I already had IELTS-GEneral Training so maybe i should say YES also for (do you have language ability required to start employment in skilled occupation...)
Assuming you got the required grades in the IELTS-G exam, then I absolutely would.

What about this: If your occupation is not regulated, what steps will you take before you arrive in Manitoba to ensure you find skilled employment sson after arriving in manitoba? (will i give answers to this even if my occupation RN is regulated?
I'm not familiar with the form you're referring to, but I'd assume it should be left blank, or 'n/a'.

Thank you again.
