Overview

CBI Health is proud to be an approved partner of the WeRPN BEGIN Program. The Bridging Educational Grant in Nursing (BEGIN) program, created by WeRPN in partnership with the Ontario Government, supports Personal Support Workers (PSWs) and Registered Practical Nurses (RPNs) to explore new professional pathways and bridge to RPN and RN roles in the Long-Term Care (LTC) and Home and Community Care (HCC) sectors. Eligible participants enrolled in an accredited PSW/RPN, RPN/RN, or PSW/RN program can access BEGIN grants to reimburse tuition and mandatory ancillary fees. Participants commit to a year of employment with CBI Health for each year (or portion of a year) funded through a Return of Service Agreement, up to three years. Upon graduation, participants contribute to the provincial healthcare system.
