It is open to all nurses. Nurses who are NCLEX passers and/or who have working experience are highly encouraged to participate.

“Enhance Visa seeks to empower Filipinos by arming them with the proper knowledge so they can make informed choices about their career and ultimately, their future. Canada is a good choice to pursue both,” says Eden Dumont, Managing Director of Enhance Visa.

Catch the event on the following dates:

November 11 - Cebu (Radisson Blu Hotel)

November 13 - Bacolod (Bacolod Business Inn)

November 14 - Iloilo (Seda Atria Hotel)

The expo is among Enhance Visa's line-up of events for 2017 as part of the its campaign to encourage Filipinos to take the first step and make a move towards a better future.
