In many provinces, college-level diploma nursing programs have been eliminated, since most provincial and regulatory bodies have made the baccalaureate degree the basic entry to the prac-tice of nursing.
The length of the baccalaureate nursing program is four years.
Presently, baccalaureate nursing programs are offered through collaboration between colleges and universities. Universities will continue to deliver programs at the baccalaureate, master's, and doctorate levels.
