Program details

Overview

This Advanced Forensic Nurse Examiner (FNE) micro-credential builds upon the Forensic Nurse Examiner micro-credential. It offers ongoing educational support for FNEs, so they can refresh their skills, gain specialized competencies to meet patient and legal system needs, and maintain their credibility as expert witnesses in court.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: BCIT runs no formal application for this micro-credential; instead applicants email their BCIT ID number to the forensics program with a description of their education and work experience related to forensic nursing. Recommended background, rather than a strict prerequisite, includes completion of FSCT 7810 (Introduction to Forensic Health Sciences) and FSCT 7840 (Forensic Nurse Examiner Core Education: Theoretical Aspects), or permission from the forensics department, plus experience working as a Forensic Nurse Examiner. No minimum grade, GPA or English/French language test score is published. International applicants may take the program if studying from outside Canada or holding valid Canadian status other than a study permit, but BCIT states that those accepted are not eligible for a study permit through it.

Application Details

Application Deadline: BCIT publishes common credential application dates for most cohort-based diplomas, degrees and Flexible Learning routes, though each program's own page governs: for the January 2027 intake domestic applications run 1 February 2026 to 2 January 2027 and international to 1 November 2026; for the April 2027 intake domestic runs 1 May 2026 to 1 April 2027 and international to 1 February 2027; for September 2027 domestic applications open 1 October 2026 and close 1 September 2027, international 2 July 2027. Openings are 9:00 am and deadlines 11:59 pm Pacific Time, moving to the next business day on a weekend. Admission is not institute-wide rolling, but many programs work first-qualified-first-accepted and can fill before the posted deadline, and several programs, mostly in Health Sciences, trades and graduate studies, run entirely separate application tables of their own. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
