Licensing Required to Work as a Nurse in Canada
To work as a nurse in Canada, a trained nurse has to meet licensing requirements which can vary by province or territory.
Here is a general overview of the process:
- To work as a nurse in Canada, completing an approved nursing education program is necessary. This could be a Bachelor of Science in Nursing Degree (BSN) or a nursing diploma. Foreign-trained nurses may need an equivalency assessment to ensure their education aligns with Canadian standards.
- The equivalency assessment is carried out by the National Nursing Examination (NCLEX) once the foreign degree is deemed equivalent to Canadian standards.
- Proficiency in English or French is required. Non-native speakers must pass language proficiency exams such as IELTS.
- Nurses must register with the regulatory body in the province or territory where they plan to practice. Examples include the College of Nurses of Ontario and the College of Nurses of British Columbia.
- Foreign-trained nurses should contact the registration and regulatory bodies of the specific province or territory where they plan to work for detailed information on licensing requirements. Requirements can vary and may change over time.
