1. This Regulation applies to any person who does not hold a diploma giving access to a permit issued by the Ordre des infirmières et infirmiers auxiliaires du Québec and who is requesting that, for the purposes of obtaining a permit, a diploma issued by an educational establishment outside Québec be recognized as equivalent.

It also applies to any person who neither holds a diploma giving access to a permit, nor a diploma issued by an educational establishment outside Québec that could be recognized as equivalent under this Regulation and who is requesting, for the purposes of obtaining a permit, that the training received in Québec or outside Québec be recognized as equivalent to that diploma.

In this Regulation,

“diploma giving access to the permit” means a diploma recognized as giving access to the permit issued by the Order, by a government regulation made under the first paragraph of section 184 of the Professional Code (chapter C-26);

“diploma equivalence” means recognition pursuant to the Professional Code that a diploma issued by an educational establishment outside Québec certifies that its holder has attained a level of knowledge and skills equivalent to the level that may be attained by the holder of a diploma giving access to the permit;

“training equivalence” means recognition pursuant to the Professional Code that a person’s training demonstrates that the person has attained a level of knowledge and skills equivalent to the level that may be attained by the holder of a diploma giving access to the permit.
