National credentialing. Implications of the development of provincial regulatory bodies.

The CSLT Board feels that it has developed a structure that will allow it to deal with provincial regulatory bodies as they develop while continuing to cooperate with provincial societies. It has accepted that there will be significant changes in the role of the CSLT, particularly in the area of credentialing. The primary concern of the CSLT is national standards and portability of certification. The Board is committed to responding to the changes brought about through provincial regulatory legislation and to working with the bodies designated under this legislation to preserve national certification.
