Self assessment is designed to help members reflect upon their current professional proficiency, identify areas for improvement, and develop a learning plan that will address those areas that need improvement. Members must complete the self assessment once every two years, as determined by CCO.

Members will not be required to submit their self assessments to CCO. It is for their personal review only.

The final section of the self assessment features the Plan of Action Summary Sheet. Once members have completed the self assessment and have identified areas that need improvement, members should transfer the information to the plan of action summary and use it to develop a learning plan that will guide their CE and professional development. The plan of action summary sheet becomes a component of the member’s professional portfolio and will be reviewed by a peer assessor during the peer and practice assessment.

Starting in the July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2024 CE cycle, Council approved Self-Assessment 2.0, intended as a self assessment for members who have completed two CE cycles and thus completed two initial Self-Assessments (SA 1.0). Please see the following memorandum for a further explanation of Self-Assessment 2.0.
