Home Joining the Profession CETP Exams Writing the CETP Exams
The eligibility of exam applicants to write the CETP Exams for the profession of Audiology or Speech-Language Pathology is determined by the regulatory body in the province where you plan to work.
There are differences in process and procedures established in some jurisdictions. The “conditional enrollment” for graduates from Canadian Accredited and Non-Accredited Programs as outlined in this web site are adopted by the regulatory bodies in the following jurisdictions: New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan and British Columbia.

Tuesday, October 24 | August 1 to 31 | September 18 to 25 | |
2024 | Tuesday, February 20 | December 1 to 31 | January 15 to 22 |
Tuesday, June 25 | April 1 to 30 | May 20 to 27 | |

Note: Neither enrollment for the CETP Exam nor passing the CETP Exam means an exam candidate is able to practice the profession. The CETP Exam is one component of the licensure process and registration with the applicable regulatory body is required.
Graduates from Canadian Accredited Programs may enroll for the CETP Exams during the exam enrollment period. “Conditional enrollment” is available as long as the following conditions are met:
The exam enrollment will be cancelled and a full refund provided to an exam applicant who is unable to fulfill the criteria required for “conditional enrollment”.
*Conditional enrollment” for graduates of Canadian Accredited Programs is available only to exam candidates who plan to practice in jurisdictions who have agreed to the conditional enrollment process.
The provincial regulatory body determines the eligibility of all exam applicants who were educated outside Canada. All internationally-educated and USA educated exam candidates must undergo the assessment process established by the regulatory body in the province where they plan to work. Once the provincial regulatory body has completed their assessment, the CETP Exams Manager will receive confirmation of the eligibility and the exam candidate may proceed with the exam enrollment during the established exam enrollment period.
