Continuing Education Package

As a licensed healthcare profession in the province of Saskatchewan, the College is given the significant responsibility of self-regulation of its members. Within this role, is the responsibility to ensure all members achieve, and maintain, an appropriate level of education and training.

We practice in an era when the public expects our knowledge, and delivered care, to be current and evidence based. As such, it behooves each of us, working as professionals in this environment, to live up to these expectations.

The College, and by design, the Continuing Education Committee (CEC), must ensure there is a program in place to see that these requirements are met. Ultimately though, it will be each individual’s responsibility to fulfill the requirements for Continuing Education as outlined in the College Regulatory Bylaws (see sections 15 and 18).

The CEC must have all members track their own required continuing education. Without realizing it, most therapists will probably come close to fulfilling the basic requirements in the course of their daily work, and ongoing training. Any additional work for necessary credits will be the responsibility of the individual. The accompanying document outlines the Continuing Education program; please review it carefully. Additionally, it contains forms that members may use in tracking their various educational activities. The Audit procedure the College is mandated to perform is outlined as well.

For any questions that you may have, please contact the Registrar, Registration Committee, or Continuing Education Committee. We will strive to deal with them in a timely manner guided by the Bylaws that have been adopted. If you have any questions with regard to the Continuing Education Program, they may be directed to the committee or to the chairperson.

Yours truly,

Winnifred S Haines BA, RRT, CACPT

Chairperson, SCRT Continuing Education Committee
