Candidates for this program must have previously: 

  • Been assessed for substantively similarity for education/experience and granted access to the national certification exam OR

  • Have been approved by the regulatory body in your jurisdiction to take the program. 

Academic Component 

This preparatory program is self-directed. Individuals are directed to the required resources which cover the objectives for each unit. The topics covered and examined mirror the national competency profile.
