Why did the College do a review? What was the process?

One of the College’s responsibilities under the Professional Governance Act is to establish entrance requirements. The College reviewed the Credentialing Standard to ensure that registrants have the minimum knowledge and skills to practice independently, while avoiding unnecessary barriers to registration.

The College struck a Task Force consisting of nine registrants to recommend changes to the Standard. As part of their work, the Task Force conducted surveys of recent registrants and employers, and consulted with the College’s volunteer Credentials Assessors.
