TOEFL iBT
If the participant has not yet earned the required TOEFL score, s/he must take the TOEFL iBT and achieve a score of 550 or above.NCLEX-RN exam
During the second quarter IEP will help participants schedule the NCLEX-RN exam. The NCLEX-RN examination is a Computerized Adaptive Test (CAT) designed to test knowledge, skills, and abilities essential to the safe and effective practice of nursing at the entry level. Students will take the NCLEX-RN exam shortly after completing the third quarter and should receive results within two (2) to four (4) weeks.Optional Practical Training (OPT)
Upon successful completion of the NCLEX-RN exam and fulfillment of all other language and California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) requirements, nurses will be placed in a hospital or clinic for one year of OPT. Salaries will be commensurate with salaries paid to U.S. nurses with similar education and experience. Nurses will be placed in hospitals or clinics in California according to their interests, skills and languages spoken.Online Mentoring During OPT
Nurses will be assigned online mentors during their year of practical training. Mentors will communicate with the hospitals, supervisors and nurses on a weekly basis and will always be available to the nurses to advise and help solve problems or answer questions.Applicants wishing to work in an American hospital at the end of their year of OPT must submit documents to the Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools (CGNFS) Visa Screen. The CGFNS Visa Screen process includes
- An assessment of an applicant’s education to ensure that it is comparable to that of a U.S. graduate in the same profession
- Verification that all professional healthcare licenses that the applicant ever held are valid and unencumbered
- English language proficiency (TOEFL iBT)
- Verification that the nurse has passed the NCLEX-RN examination
Application to CGFNS does not guarantee a job or a work visa.
