​New Triple-Track Assessment

The Triple-track assessment an innovative assessment which aims at making it easier for internationally educated nurses to enter BC's nursing work force. NCAS's new triple-track assessment allows a potential registrant to have their competencies assessed for three nursing professions – registered nurse, licensed practical nurse and health care assistant – with no additional fees. After completing both the computer-based assessment and the simulation lab assessment, all applicants will receive three distinct competency reports that they can then use to seek registration in the nursing profession of their choice.
