The purpose of this facility is to allow students to gain local experiences and understand the Canadian health care system. ULI's health care and nursing program open doors for students interested in the health care and nursing profession by preparing students to work as a medical office assistant, LPN or RN, enhancing English scores, and giving hands-on experience in the health care field through work experience. The work experiences gives students new insights into the multi-cultural environment in Canada. The work in broader culturally diverse settings brings value whether the students plans to return home or stay abroad.
If you are a foreign student interested in employment in the health care and nursing fields, we have great programs in which you can learn about the Canadian health care system, enhance your English scores, and gain valuable work experience, too.
At ULI, you can prepare to work as a medical office assistant, a licensed practical nurse (LPN) or a registered nurse (RN) with certification and licensing preparation that will help you whether you decide to train for work in Canada or in your home country.
*To qualify for our nursing exam program, students must be registered nurses in good standing in their country of origin.
