As with many other Provincial Associations and Colleges, the requirement for Continuing Education Credits was approved at the PEIAMRT May 2010 Annual Meeting. The guidelines were included with the 2011 dues notice and a Professional Activity Record was included with your 2011 dues receipt. See links to other professional Associations or Colleges for their continuing education requirements.

PEIAMRT has a requirement for membership to work 500 hours in a 5 year period and to maintain continuing education. The continuing education requirement is 30 credits in 5 years with a minimum of 5 credits each year. A professional Activity Record including the continuing education and work hours is available by contacting peiamrtregistrar@bellaliant.net.
