Opportunities Ontario: Human Capital Priorities Stream

 

This post aims to summarize the newest addition of the Ontario, Canada Nominee program titled as the "Opportunities Ontario: Human Capital Priorities Stream".  

There are two Main programs for the Opportunities Ontario Provincial Nominee Program. 

Provincial Nominee program - Employer stream where employers can help applicants for Permanent Residents Visa whether they are a student, a graduate of Masters Degree or a PHD from Ontario, an Overseas worker who got a Job Offer from an Employer in Ontario Canada. 

Express Entry Stream - In connection with the Express Entry, Canada's newest system that manages Permanent resident visa programs - Federal Skilled Worker, Federal Skilled Trade, Canadian Experience Class and Provincial Nominee program - Opportunities Ontario PNP participated by launching their Express Entry Stream. Those who meet the programs criteria and have at least 400 points can be nominated by Ontario and get this advantage to be chosen to get an Invitation to apply - ITA.  Once an applicant has the ITA, their Visa's can be processed within 6 months or less. 

To benefit from this new program, applicants must complete their application requirements as soon as possible so that they can correctly make their Express Entry profile.

NCLEX Passers Alberta Canada

The College of Registered Nurses of Alberta - CARNA recognizes NCLEX passers from 1982 till present.

Applicants with NCLEX may no longer have to take the Board Exam in Alberta, but to find out they need to have their credentials assessed first.

And I quote from the CRNA Website: "CARNA recognizes past NCLEX-RN results Posted September 29, 2014 On September 26, 2014 CARNA Provincial Council passed the motion to retroactively recognize all passing NCLEX-RN results back to 1982. Effective immediately, if you passed the NCLEX between 1982 and present day, you will be considered to have met CARNA’s exam requirement for registration. You will not be required to take the NCLEX again. 

Update In response to the feedback we have received, we encourage interested international applicants to refer to all the registration requirements for IENs. 

Passing the registration exam is only one requirement and this alone does not enable you to practice in Alberta. If you have not applied to CARNA already and want to practice in Alberta, you need to first apply through NNAS. If you have an open file with CARNA, or have previously applied, please send an email with your specific information or questions to ien@nurses.ab.ca. We appreciate your patience in receiving a response during this high volume time." 

How does this affect you the applicant? 

If you have a valid NCLEX you can have your credentials assessed in the National Nursing Assessment Service NNAS. 

And if you are fortunate to pass the assessment, you will no longer have to take the CARNA exam to practice in Alberta. Having this credential means you will be able to apply for a Nursing Job in Alberta Canada, and if you get an employer, you will have very high points to be considered to receive an Invitation to Apply - ITA for a Permanent Residents Visa in Canada.
