28 July 2022, Ottawa – The Philippine Embassy’s “Credentials Recognition in Canada” microsite went online today as part of ongoing efforts by Philippine Posts in Canada (PPC) to promote awareness on credentials recognition processes for internationally educated nurses in the country.

The microsite provides a platform for Philippine-educated and trained nurses who wish to practice their profession in Canada to access information on the accreditation requirements of the various provinces and territories. The site links to the websites of the different nursing regulatory authorities, including credentialing requirements, and the National Nursing Assessment Service. A section is also dedicated to related publications released by Philippine Posts in Canada, such as the “Guide for Filipino Nurses” brochure and the “Filipinos in the Field” E-Book.

The microsite may be accessed at https://sites.google.com/dfa.gov.ph/crc/home. 

PPC is composed of the Philippine Embassy in Ottawa and the Consulates General in Vancouver, Calgary, and Toronto.
