The Practical Nursing (Flexible) program at Centennial College offers students the in-depth knowledge, skills and judgement required in today’s complex health care environment.

The offering also meets competencies that will reflect the evolving and expanding role of the practical nurse as provided by the Nursing Act and the Regulated Health Professions Act (RHPA). These competencies will include learning to provide safe, competent and ethical care using resources and technologies for an increasingly complex client population. The Practical Nursing program will also serve as preparation to practice autonomously in a variety of settings.

What You’ll Learn

  • Therapeutically communicate with clients and members of the health care team
  • Assess clients across the life span in a systematic and holistic manner
  • Plan safe and competent nursing care based on a thorough analysis of available data and evidence-informed practice guidelines
  • Select and perform nursing interventions using clinical judgment in collaboration with the client and, where appropriate, the health care team, that promote health and well-being, prevent disease and injury, maintain and/or restore health, promote rehabilitation, and/or provide palliation
  • Evaluate the outcomes resulting from all interventions in the nurse-client interaction and modify the plan of care as required
  • Act equitably and justly with clients and members of the health care team
  • Adapt to a variety of health care settings using different leadership skills and styles as appropriate to each setting
  • Contribute to creating a healthy and safe work environment in a variety of health care settings
  • Practice in a self-regulated, professional and ethical manner, complying with relevant legislation and with the standards of both the regulatory body and the practice setting to provide safe and competent client care

Additional ancillary fees for career services, health and counselling, athletics, student ID cards, and more may apply.

As a current student in Centennial College’s Early Childhood Education program, I’m loving the experience so far! The curriculum is really well-rounded, covering everything from child development to creating inclusive learning environments. The best part is the hands-on experience—we get to work with kids through placements, which is amazing for applying what we learn in class.

I’m really glad I chose Centennial College’s Business Supply Chain program. The courses covered everything I needed to know—from logistics to global supply chain strategies. The professors were awesome and made the lessons super relatable, which helped me adjust to studying in Canada.

I loved how the program balanced theory with hands-on projects, and it gave me a solid foundation in the field. Plus, the diverse student community made it easy to connect with people from all over. Now, I feel ready to kick off my career in supply chain management. Definitely recommend this program if you want practical skills and a great learning experience in Canada!
