Take the IENCAP? or Finish courses as required by CNO?

[cs_24]

Hi! I finished my Bachelor of Nursing degree back in the Philippines. However, didn’t get the chance to take the PNLE prior migrating here to Canada. I completed my NNAS and have already applied to CNO for further evaluation. Hence, I received a letter suggesting that I should take the IENCAP. I’m confused whether I should take the IENCAP first OR wait for the college to send me a letter consisting the courses I am required to take so I could apply to a college/university. Thing is, I’ve graduated a year ago and honestly, I am not ready to take the IENCAP yet. I’ve visited a couple of websites saying that in case I won’t make it successfully on the exam, that is when CNO will have to refer me to a College and take the programs they require me to take. I was thinking whether it’s better to take the required courses first and after that take the IENCAP exam? Or vice versa?
