The Registrar may refer your application to the Registration Committee if they decide that you need further assessment to determine if you meet the registration requirements. Applications received from individuals who were trained outside of a Canadian or American accredited university program in SLP or Audiology are typically reviewed by the Registration Committee.

ACSLPA’s Registration Committee meets six times per year, on the second Friday of January, March, May, July, September, and November (Please note: these dates are subject to change due to extenuating circumstances). We require all documentation a minimum of three weeks prior to a committee meeting in order to prepare the application package for their review.

After the Registration Committee reviews your application, they will do one or more of the following:

  • Approve your registration and issue you an annual practice permit,
  • Approve your registration and issue you an annual practice permit with specified conditions on practice,
  • Defer your application with an interim decision until you successfully complete an examination that the Registration Committee specifies,
  • Defer your application with an interim decision until you successfully complete any additional training or supervised practice that the Registration Committee specifies, or
  • Refuse your application.
