Verification of registration


What is an official verification of registration?

It is an official document that shows your current registration status and registration history with BCCNP. ​​

Proof of your registration status

​You will  likely be required to provide verification of registration when you apply to another regulatory body or an educational institution.

​What is a copy of an official transcripts or documents?

It is a copy of your transcripts or other application documents that have come to BCCNP directly from the school or the issuing organization. If you applied through NNAS, we cannot forward your transcripts or documents to third parties. If you require these documents, please contact NNAS​.

How long will it take?

Once we've received your request and payment, we will create an official document and will mail it to the regulatory body or education institution indicated on your request form. It may take up to two​ weeks for your request to be processed.

You will receive a confirmation email once the verification has been sent.

  • ​BCCNP registration number, initial registration dates (including provisional registration, if any) and current registration status with BCCNP
  • ​date of birth and former names (if any) 
  • n​ame of school of nursing, graduation date and type of program
