I don't believe they carry over from country to country. I used to work as a CNA and if I wanted to work as one in a different state, I had to get a CNA liscense in that state. I am not sure which website(s) to check out but I hope this was of some help. I believe if you have gotten your LPN degree in Canada, you may need to find out if you need to get one in the US.
