Education
Every year many nurses from all over
the world would like to practice as registered nurses in
the United States. If you are one of them, the U.S.
Links International could help you work toward to your
goal.
The school, which you will attend, is
a three-step process.
STEP 1.
The first six months will be dedicated
to prepare you for the TOEFL examination. TOEFL, The
Test of English as Foreign Language is to evaluate the
English language proficiency of people whose native
language is not English. The exam measures listening
comprehension structure and written statement and
reading comprehension. A score of 540 or higher must be
achieved on the test to meet the requirements.
This course is offered by so many
institutes in most of the cities of the world. We will
help you find this institute near you. Or we can provide
you with all the course material or can offer you this
course on the internet. This course will be rigorous and
you will have to study hard. We will not give up on you.
We will work hard with each student to
insure your passing the TOEFL.
STEP 2.
The TOEFL exam behind you, we are now
ready to take you to the next level. For the next 4
months we will enroll you in the CGFNS course, The
Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools.
CGFNS is designed specifically for general nurses
educated out side the United States who wish to be
registered nurses in the United States. The test has
only one purpose to determine, if it is safe for you to
begin practice as a nurse in The United States. CGFNS is
a test of minimum competency and is based on the
knowledge and behaviors that are for the practice of
nursing. This exam tests not only your knowledge but
also your ability to make competent nursing judgments.
You should not find this too difficult to pass. We will
be dedicated to your passing the CGFNS and will continue
the rigorous training.
STEP 3.
Now that you have passed both the
TOEFL and the CGFNS exams, we will immediately start
processing your papers for Immigrant Visa Green Card,
but we will talk about that on the next page. Now we go
to the 3rd step of education. For the next 2 months we
will be teaching with American Nurse Teachers
preparation for the NCLEX exam. This exam can only be
taken after you arrive in the US.
NOTE: There will be a limited number
of nurses, which we will accept for the education
courses.
