As Nova Scotia’s nursing regulator, NSCN is committed to the ongoing review of our registration requirements to streamline processes and reduce the length of time it takes for qualified applicants to obtain a licence to practice. We are writing to inform you of a change we have made to our application requirements for applicants from outside of Nova Scotia. As of March 9, 2022, we have revised our English Language Proficiency policy to provide more flexible options to meet this registration requirement. The details of the new policy can be found here: https://www.nscn.ca/registration-licensing/general-licensing-information/english-language-proficiency
