Health Sciences Transition CoursesTRU Open Learning

Transition courses are for everyone, from students entering or participating in entry-level health programs to nationally or internationally educated health professionals.

As a nationally educated health care professional, you may choose these courses to support a transition in your professional practice or to receive credit toward a post-diploma undergraduate degree program. As an internationally educated health care professional, you may choose some of these courses to support your Canadian licensure.

As a student in an entry-level health program, you may opt for the theory courses as an elective or find a course suitable for transfer credit toward a course in your program of study.

English language requirement

If you are an internationally educated nurse whose first language is not English, you must provide evidence of English proficiency by passing the Canadian English Language Benchmark Assessment for Nurses (CELBAN) at the level required by the BC College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).

Courses

Also, see the Pre-Health Science Certificate, which provides general educational breadth and specific health related content required or recommended for entry into many health care programs.

Consult with your program advisor to ensure that the courses you select are appropriate for your program of study and educational goals. If you proceed otherwise, you may find that a course does not meet program requirements and its credits may not be applied toward your chosen credential, or you may be required to pay an additional transcript assessment fee.
