Am I qualified to carry the CNOR title

Am I qualified to carry the CNOR title?
Hi! I graduated from Malaysian Ministry of health in Post Basic Peri-operative nursing. Does this certification qualifies me to carry the title CNOR? If not, what title can i place besides SRN (State Registered Nurse)? TQ for your answer. With response I have a certificate from Malaysian Ministry of Health to verify that I have attended and passed the post basic in peri operative nursing course and been certified with the qualification as stated in the certificate.. Does that allow me to carry the "C" title?

Normally to be a "certified" anything, one must take a certifying exam. Take for instance, I went to school for Surgical Technology, I graduated as a Vocational Specialist in Surgical Technology, I will hold THAT title forever...however...I needed to take my national certifying examination in order to hold the title Certified Surgical Technologist, (of course I did, no one will hire one that isn't) I am also an RN, I did not specialize in any part of nursing, or test to be certified in any specialty of nursing, so I can't add that 'C' in front of my title. Even if I wanted to be an operating room nurse, I would have to take the certifying examination to have the title Cert. OR Nurse-just being a Nurse and a Surg Tech alone doesn't certify me. I hope this makes sense.
