MLT Hours Worked:
You can either enter the hours worked to date or if possible, please estimate the hours worked by December 31.
Email Address:
If you have been using your work email address to log into your CMLTA profile, we recommend changing it to a personal email address, especially if you are using a DynaLIFE email address.
Insurance:
As noted in emails sent in July 2023, professional liability insurance (PLI) is now a registration requirement. You will be required to have PLI starting January 1, 2024, and there will be a declaration in the renewal process regarding this.
Recent Graduates with Provisional MLT Practice Permits:
Please remember to upload a copy of your CSMLS Statement of Examination Results or CSMLS Certificate and a copy of your MLT diploma/degree in your member profile under “Change My Registration” to be upgraded to a full-standing Practice Permit. Official e-transcripts stating the date the MLT diploma/degree is awarded will be accepted in lieu of a diploma/degree.
Legislated Deadline for Registration and MLT Practice Permit Renewal:
Anyone who fails to renew by the December 31, 2023, deadline will have their practice permit immediately suspended and will not be able to practice until they renew. In this circumstance, the CMLTA sends a notification to the employer after January 1, 2024, indicating the individual must cease working as an MLT immediately until they are in possession of a valid registration and MLT Practice Permit and provide evidence of such to their employer.
Individuals who renew their practice permit late (on or after January 1, 2024) will be subject to a $225 admin fee. Individuals practicing on or after January 1, 2024, without a 2024 registration and MLT Practice Permit, are in contravention of the Health Professions Act and may be subject to a complaint of unprofessional conduct, including discipline sanctions.
Retiring/Moving Out of Province/Leave of Absence:
MLTs whose employment status has changed and will not be renewing their registration and MLT Practice Permit for 2024, must notify the CMLTA by submitting a Notice of Non-Practice through their member profile on their Home Page under “Change My Registration.”
REMINDERS:
NOTE: The CMLTA office will be closed from December 25, 2023, to January 1, 2024.
