How to become a nurse in Canada

To begin a career in nursing within Canada, you must first acquire a diploma or degree from an accredited nursing program, which can be found at universities, colleges, or specialized nursing institutions. The required education for a Registered Nurse (RN) includes at least a diploma or a Bachelor of Science in Nursing, with the program's duration varying according to the chosen educational level. Following the completion of one's nursing education, the next critical step is to pass the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN), a test managed by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN) aimed at evaluating the candidate's nursing knowledge and skills. After successfully passing the NCLEX-RN, candidates are eligible to apply for registration with their local regulatory body, which oversees the licensure of nurses in each Canadian province and territory; for non-native English speakers, this process may also involve passing a language proficiency exam such as the IELTS or CELPIP.
