How come you've decided to take CELBAN rather than IELTS, CELPIP, or other types of language tests?

i do only have two options, either celban or academic ielts for internationally educated nurse. and ielts is harder so i picked celban since the exam is more on nursing topics. but the problem is that information for celban is limited.

I haven't seen any practice materials online since there aren't books published for CELBAN.

Even though IELTS is harder - you have a greater chance of improving your scores due to the amount of resources available (Books, Online Tests, Tutors, Classes)
 
@annabel04....yes, there are very limited celban resources because the review materials are not for copyright as I was told. If you are here in Edmonton, there's bredin institute who gives a free celban review for aspiring nurses. Tomorrow, I will have my English assessment exam with them. From there, they will gauge what area I would need to concentrate more. There's also Guru Learning Institute who will come to Edmonton this weekend to conduct a 3-day Celban crash course but this has a fee. Try also to do the mock test at celban-blog website. I hope to give you more info in the future. Cheers!

Hi! They're coming here this weekend already (21,22 & 23)..there are still few slots. Here is the number to call 604-953-0003. Hope you can join us this weekend because they seldom go to other provinces to conduct celban crash course.
