- Application:
Submit all required application documents to CRNM. Please see Internationally Educated Applicants Requirements page for additional information.
- Review:
Following receipt of requirements 1 through 5 (listed on the requirements page), a file will be opened for you. Following receipt of the additional registration requirements outlined on the requirements page, your application will be considered complete and assessment will begin. Your application will be assessed for evidence of competence to practice that is substantially equivalent to the competencies required of registered nurses in Manitoba.
- If competency to practice can be determined from your documents, CRNM will approve you for exam eligibility for a period of one year. You will be required to write the Canadian Registered Nurse Exam (CRNE) within that year.
- If competency to practice cannot be determined from your documents, you will be referred to The Health Sciences Centre in Winnipeg for assessment. The result of that assessment will be returned to CRNM. Based on those results, CRNM will make a determination regarding competence to practice, and/or any additional educational requirements.
- If sufficient evidence indicates competence to practice, substantially equivalent to the required competencies, CRNM will approve you for exam eligibility for a period of one year. You will be required to write the Canadian Registered Nurse Exam (CRNE) within that year.
- If further education is required you will be referred to complete all of, or a portion of, Red River College’s Bridging Program for Internationally Educated Nurses. Upon successful completion of this program, CRNM will approve you for exam eligibility for a period of one year. You will be required to write the Canadian Registered Nurse Exam (CRNE) within that year.
If all of the requirements listed above are not received within one year from the date a file is opened, the file will be closed. The applicant will need to begin the application process over again should they wish to pursue registration in Manitoba.
- Examination:
You must successfully complete the CRNE. Applicants approved for the next writing of the CRNE are eligible for Graduate Nurse Application.
- Registration:
Upon successful completion of the CRNE you will be invited to apply for registration on the practicing register. Registration fees will be due prior to approval to the practicing register.
