You must show evidence of approved or recognized nursing education that meets the required credential for the type of nursing (RN, RPN or NP) that you want to practice in Ontario.
RPN applicants can meet this requirement by completing a diploma nursing program approved by CNO or one that is approved or recognized in any jurisdiction.
If you do not meet the required credential, then CNO will assess your nursing education and any additional nursing programs to determine if they are substantially equivalent to that of an Ontario program.
