ARE THERE EXAMS TO BE TAKEN BY PN NURSES IN ORDER TO BE EMPLOYED ABROAD?
Yes. For the US, it’s called NCLEX-PN (National Licensure Exam-Practical Nurse). In other countries such as Australia, the application is lodged with the ANMC (Australian Nurse Midwifery Council) and be eligible for the Enrolled Nurse licensure exams. In Ontario, Canada, the PN graduate has to meet all the eligibility requirements to qualify for the Professional Practical Nursing Licensure Exams. No local board however is needed.
