- The Practice Review Committee has revised the initial Registration (R/TRO, R/TRO DIP) application requirements so that you will no longer need to submit your membership certificate as supporting documentation in the Professional Affiliation section. TRO staff will simply confirm active membership status by reviewing your membership number in our system. Check your membership expiry date on your profile page to ensure your membership is active prior to submitting your application package.
- UPDATES OF THE REGISTRATION APPLICATION PACKAGE: As of September 1, 2015, the registration designation will have two titles, R/TRO for degree prepared practitioners, and R/TRO DIP for diploma prepared practitioners. Please review the new Registration (R/TRO & R/TRO DIP) Application Packages below.
- Please ensure you make a copy of your Application Package for your files, as successful Registration Portfolio Application Packages will not be returned unless you add an administration fee to your application (see application form for details).
