Nursing And School Of Emergency Management Dept: And now, eight years after immigrating to Canada from Cameroon, she s ready to start working as a nurse in Canada. Having passed her exams in George Brown College s Academic Pathway for Nurses Graduate Certificate program, she has received the approval of the College of Nurses of Ontario CNO to practise, according to The Star. According to Patricia Marten-Daniel, chair of Nursing and School of Emergency Management at George Brown s Centre for Continuous Learning, students enter the program with diverse needs, largely because their educational backgrounds and levels of training vary. The college aims to accommodate individual needs; some students attend full-time during the day while others attend part-time in the evenings. Students, who come from all over the world, range in age from their 20s to their early 50s. But the challenges they face are typically the same and godfrida Bamnjo comes from a family of nurses. Three of her sisters are nurses, another is a midwife and her father was a veterinary nurse. She grew up surrounded by the language and the spirit of caregiving, studied nursing in both English and French and has worked as a midwife. At any given time, 400 to 500 internationally trained nurses are enrolled in the George Brown program to fill gaps in their education as identified by the CNO and to become familiarized with the Ontario health-care system.
