| Description | The Practical Nursing for Internationally Educated Nurses program is designed as an academic pathway to transfer skills and nursing knowledge to a Canadian setting.
The Practical Nursing for Internationally Educated Nurses courses in this college diploma program will meet the needs of:
Internationally educated nurses interested in working as registered practical nurses (RPNs) in Canada.
RPNs who hold a certificate and wish to upgrade to an Ontario college diploma.
RPNs who have been out of practice for 10 years or less and need a refresher program.
The offering's curriculum is in accordance with the College of Nurses of Ontario's Professional Standards and National Entry-to-Practice Competencies for Registered Practical Nurses. It will focus on assisting you in developing your knowledge and critical thinking, communication, teaching and learning, professionalism, advocacy, research, and leadership and ethical-decision making skills — and applying these skills in health care settings.
Taking three consecutive semesters to complete, including 14 weeks of consolidation experience, the School of Community and Health Studies program will consider your needs so that you may complete your diploma studies within one year. | | |
