The International Commission on Healthcare Professions VisaScreen® certificate is a result of successful completion of the CGFNS/ICHP VisaScreen® program, which meets all federal requirements of a screening program for health care professionals seeking certain occupational visas in the United States. The CGFNS certificate is a result of successful completion of the CGFNS Certification Program, which is a program consisting of an educational and registration/licensure review, the CGFNS Qualifying Exam® of nursing knowledge, as well as an English language proficiency assessment, designed specifically for first-level, general (registered) nurses seeking licensure in the United States.
