How CCO Protects the Public Interest

CCO sets requirements for entry to the profession, registers chiropractors, sets standards of practice and guidelines for professional practice, monitors chiropractic competence through a quality assurance program, investigates complaints and reports against chiropractors and disciplines those members who have committed acts of professional misconduct or who are incompetent or incapacitated.
Before being allowed to practice as a chiropractor in Ontario , chiropractors must:

• graduate from an accredited chiropractic college; and
• pass national and provincial licensing examinations

Applicants must also meet the requirements of Employment and Immigration Canada and demonstrate a reasonable fluency in either English or French.
