Why In-Person Workshops Matter for Nurses Exploring U.S. Opportunities

At Scanscope, we believe that moving your nursing career to the United States shouldn’t feel like a confusing maze — it should feel like a guided, supportive journey. That’s exactly why we’ve committed to hosting in-person workshops for nurses across Canada, like our recent event in Toronto.

These sessions are about more than just information. They’re about connection, clarity, and confidence.

What Nurses Gain from These Events

At our workshops, Canadian RNs don’t just get a general overview — they receive clear, tailored information that applies directly to their journey. We walk through everything you need to know, including:

  • How to choose and apply to the right U.S. Board of Nursing

  • Understanding CGFNS requirements and the VisaScreen process

  • What direct hire really means — and how it differs from agency contracts

  • What to expect when relocating to the U.S. as a nurse, from licensing to employment

Our goal is to simplify the complex. The licensing process is different for every U.S. state, and many nurses are overwhelmed before they even begin. These events break it down step by step, giving nurses the tools — and the confidence — to take action.

A Personalized, Human Approach

There’s something powerful about sitting down in the same room, making eye contact, and having your questions answered by someone who understands the system. That personal connection is something no website or email thread can replicate.

Nurses told us they appreciated the personalized approach we offered — listening to individual situations, helping them map out their next steps, and treating every attendee like a future partner, not a number.

Building Trust, One Conversation at a Time

We’ve learned that trust and transparency go a long way. When nurses meet us in person, they see that we’re here for the long haul — to support, to inform, and to walk beside them throughout the process.

These events help build a real relationship between nurses and our company. It’s not just about processing paperwork — it’s about starting a career and building a future in a new country with the support of a team that truly cares.

Direct Hire: A Clear, Stable Path Forward

One of the most exciting parts of our workshops is helping nurses understand what direct hire means. It’s a long-term opportunity with a U.S. hospital — no contracts to jump between, no third-party employers. Just stability, transparency, and growth.

For many nurses, this is the first time they’ve heard of this option. And once they do, they realize it could be the best fit for their goals.

Ready to Start?

These workshops are more than just events — they’re the start of a journey. If you're a nurse thinking about moving to the U.S., or a facility looking for qualified international candidates, these in-person touchpoints make all the difference.

We’ll keep showing up, city by city, to connect with nurses where they are — and help them go where they want to be.
