Community of International Nursing Students
Description: The community of International Nursing Students provides peer support and advocacy for International Students and Internationally-Educated Nurses (IENs) within the School of Nursing. All levels of students 鈥� including undergraduate, Masters, and Doctorate 鈥� are welcome in the group.聽
Rationale: International students and IENs are a great asset for the nursing workforce with diverse educational, linguistic and cultural backgrounds. However, international nursing students face numerous challenges unique to the profession, such as navigating different health care systems, clarifying roles and scopes of practice, and obtaining license in Canada. Generic resources targeted at the general international student population often leave these unique needs unaddressed.聽

Objectives:
鈥� Networking: To build meaningful connections among new applicants, current students and recent graduates who identify as international students and/or IENs.聽聽
