Guide for new RNs

Welcome to Registered Nursing in Manitoba

Our commitment to you and to the public interest

It’s together with you that we protect and serve the public. While the College sets the standards with input from RNs, it’s through your day-to-day work that you demonstrate the standards and in so doing deliver safe, competent and ethical registered nursing services.

What does the College do?

The College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba is the regulatory body for all graduate nurses, registered nurses, nurse practitioners and graduate nurse practitioners in Manitoba. The purpose of regulation is to protect the public by ensuring that applicants meet the requirements to practise as an RN in Manitoba.

Our website has a wealth of information for registered nurses. Check out our resource library for more information.

Continuing Competency Program (CCP)

The CCP is a comprehensive program that helps you maintain and enhance your practice. By completing the annual requirements, you assure the public that you are committed to maintaining and improving your competence as a registered nurse. Click here to learn more about the CCP.

Get Involved!

There are a number of ways you can interact with the College and get more involved:

• Apply to join the Council or a committee
• Volunteer your expertise – the College often invites RNs to help develop programs, review standards and participate in surveys and focus groups. Your expertise helps shape the profession.

These opportunities are advertised on our Careers and Volunteering page and the College eNews as they come up.
