The CASN Accreditation Program is the property of CASN. Only Canadian Schools of Nursing that are CASN member Schools, are eligible to participate in a CASN Accreditation peer review, are eligible to receive “accredited" status from the CASN Board of Accreditation and if they are successful in achieving accreditation status, are eligible to use “graduate of an accredited program" or “accredited" in the School’s and program’s publications. Any other use of the latter terms without written CASN approval will result in legal action.
