Once you submit the required information, a friendly SALPN Registration team member will review your information. If satisfied, the team member will provide you with access to continue your application journey. You will be notified via email!

Following a successful review of the above, the SALPN will conduct an assessment, evaluating your NNAS Advisory Report against the Practical Nursing educational requirements from across Canada and the legislative requirements for licensure within Saskatchewan.  If SALPN is satisfied with the assessment, remedial education will be recommended, and applicants are notified of such via email.  The SALPN notifies applicants of further steps once all recommended remedial education is completed.
