CMLTO launches consultation: Voluntary Roster criteria
Since the inception of the CMLTO Voluntary Roster of Registered Medical Laboratory Technicians (“the Voluntary Roster”), the CMLTO has published the minimum criteria for medical laboratory assistants and technicians to be included on the Voluntary Roster. These criteria were introduced in 2015 and updated in 2018. CMLTO reviews the Voluntary Roster criteria annually with the intent of evolving them to mirror the MLT registration requirements.
Stakeholders are invited to comment on the proposed amendments to the CMLTO Voluntary Roster criteria, which were approved by Council at its September meeting. Learn more by clicking here.
