Hello! Can anybody help me? (except CNO, that is not slear). If I'm RN but I did not graduated from university, and have a diploma (not BA in nursing), can I be processedas RN by CNO? Again, my BA in art, but later I graduated from special program for RN and complited all requirements in my country. Of course, I wark as RN for more then 6 years....
Thank you all for responce.

are you a nurse with three year diploma? what are your qualifications ? Have you got prfessional registration? which country are you from?

I'm from Israel and we have special program for persons, who has BA (not medical). This program converting us to RN during 2 years. Program includes all requirements of /ministry of Health, and equal to standart RN program. In addition, I completed 2 years program for emergency nursing, and now I started my MA in "advanced clinical nursing", but I do not think this is relevant for CNO or Canada at all
Thank you.

I saw you message, but somehow I can not follow the link below I contacted CNO, they sent me all forms, but I did not find usefull information about case like my one... However, I still don't know how to translate the name of program "hasavat akademaim le achaiot musmachot".
I'll try later to answer you there, and will be grateful, if you will leave me your email by personal message.
Thank you

From what you describe, it sounds as if you will be able to qualify as an RN after completing the requirements. I don't know which Province you plan to settle in, but using BC as an example, do a search for BC College of Registered Nurses. They have all sorts of information for Internationally Trained Nurses. They also have a link to contact them. Send them an email and ask them what you need to know. Hope this helps.

necaca,

ask your school wether you graduated with BSN. I too got a BA from another course and then went to 2 and half years of Nursing. just took the major subjects. got BSN after graduation. Im from philippines though.

I believe, entry level requirement in BC, Canada is BSN to work for RN. But research further to verify.

Good Luck!
