The College’s Doctor Title Working Group has been working on the Doctor Title Project by conducting research, and the development of the documentation and regulations required to propose a Doctor Class of Registration to the Provincial Government. As part of this work, the College Council recently approved draft Registration Regulation amendments for general feedback.
The Traditional Chinese Medicine Act, 2006 permits the College Council to make regulations, subject to approval by the Provincial Government, prescribing a class of certificates of registration for members to use the title “doctor”. The College’s Council is tasked with overseeing the Doctor Title Working Group to ensure it is meeting the expectations of the public in their work. Please note that until the Doctor Class of Registration is approved, membership with the College does not permit the use of the title “Doctor” or its abbreviations/variations.
On the College’s Consultation Webpage you will find:
- A draft of the Registration Regulation document;
- A comparison chart explaining each change to the regulation; and
- A link to a survey.
We are asking that you carefully review the documents and then complete the survey to provide your feedback.
Any feedback you have to offer is greatly appreciated. The consultation period will be available for 60 days, until Monday, December 1, 2025.
