Accreditation >> FAQs
Is CASN Accreditation voluntary or mandatory?
 
The CASN Accreditation Program is voluntary in most provinces and territories. The College of Nurses of Ontario, however, has designated the CASN Accreditation Program as the process to achieve provincial regulatory approval. In Newfoundland and Labrador, the Association of Registered Nurses of Newfoundland and Labrador has used CASN accreditation process results as a key input to their approval process.  In Nova Scotia, the College of Registered Nurses of Nova Scotia and CASN have a joint, integrated approval and accreditation process.
