The Canadian Alliance of Regulatory Bodies of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists (CARB-TCMPA) is soliciting proposals from qualified proponents for the development of an education accreditation process for CARB-TCMPA.
This project will consist of developing a process by which CARB-TCMPA can approve traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese acupuncture education programs offered within the jurisdictions of each CARB-TCMPA member. This process must allow CARB-TCMPA members to determine if the education offered meets their requirements for registration.
CARB-TCMPA is the national forum and voice of provincial regulatory authorities that are established by their respective provincial legislation. The founding members comprise the regulatory bodies of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists, which include:
- The College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of British Columbia (CTCMA)
- College and Association of Acupuncturists of Alberta (CAAA)
- The College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPAO)
- l'Ordre des acupuncteurs du Québec (OAQ)
- College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Newfoundland and Labrador (CTCMPANL)
Proponents, who have read this Request for Proposals (RFP) and are interested in responding may direct questions or request additional information in writing by email to the Registrar at registrar@ctcmpao.on.ca before the deadline for questions on March 20, 2020.
To be eligible for consideration, Proponents must submit one signed Proposal marked “original” by email or one signed original hardcopy to the address provided below.
