The BCCNM board on Jan. 26, 2023, approved revisions to the
Entry-Level Competencies for Nurse Practitioners.
These changes take effect Jan. 1, 2024.
The Canadian Council of Registered Nurse Regulators (CCRNR) first published Entry-Level Competencies (ELCs) for Nurse Practitioners in Canada in 2016. The process to update the ELCs, which are the basis for the BCCNM Entry-Level Competencies for Nurse Practitioners was led by CCRNR. The competencies are revised periodically to reflect evolving population needs, health system, and NP practice.
