    Thank you for breaking the process down in such a a concise way. I knew the overview but never seen anyone break down the NNAS and regulatory body parts step by step. I lived in Canada for a few years but came back to my home country to do my nursing degree. Definitely want to begin this process when I graduate.

    You are a wonderful personality. Thank you for this very valuable information, it's not easy to think about others while making your own journey and it's not easy to shine the light so others don't make same mistakes you made. Thanks Nneka. Quick question is does Canada RN require the NCLEX exam?

      Yes! Every RN in canada must successfully pass the NCLEX exam to be registered

    Hi Nneka, I have a few questions but your video answered most of it.
    So as a newly graduated BSc Nurse in Nigeria, you're required to do 1 year post-study internship at approved hospitals.
    You said internships aren't considered as work experience but can't this post-study one which lasts for 12 months be considered as one as it's actually more than the regular clinicals or placements during school.

      When going through some schools requirements for masters program in nursing, i noticed that you’d need to have your license in nursing as an RN before you can undergo their master’s program. Some schools also require some work experience as well!
      You’d need to do more research on this though as some schools requirements might differ!
      But I’d advice you start processing your license first!

    So not having any nursing experience did not make you eligible to get the RN license? Wow that’s scary to me because I don’t want to really stay in my home country too long before leaving. Or do you think it’s because you didn’t have a license in any other country compounded with the lack of experience why you didn’t qualify for the RN?

    To me I feel since it’s a long process, one should just apply as a student to start afresh. I feel it’s same timeframe. But for those evaluating to RPN. If you’re evaluating for RN then I feel it’s worth the wait. My opinion though.
