Jurisprudence exam
When the RHPA came into force in July 2018, it became a requirement to have a jurisprudence exam for new registrants as a requirement of registration. Jurisprudence is the concept of understanding and being knowledgeable about the legislative and policy requirements for registered nurses who are registered with CRNPEI.
The jurisprudence exam is required for any RN entering practice or re-entering practice in PEI. See the Jurisprudence Exam Policy and Jurisprudence RN Frequently Asked Questions.
