Procedures for Arranging Non-Designated Sites

Candidates wishing to take the CASLPA clinical certification examination at a non-designated site in Canada or abroad, must contact the CASLPA national office to determine eligibility and the need for special arrangements.

It is to be stressed that such requests are only to be made in exceptional circumstances.  Some examples of previous non-designated site requests that have been granted are:  Hong Kong; Brussels (Belgium); Florida (USA).  

In order to write the examination at a non-designated site the candidate must:
 

    • Determine their eligibility by contacting national office.

    • Contact Student Services (or equivalent) at the university which she/he is attending or in a central location and request that arrangements be made on her/his behalf to take the examination at the university. The invigilator must be CASLPA certified or be another professional in a position of authority and approved by CASLPA.

    • Student Services shall contact the CASLPA national office to request permission, on behalf of the candidate, to invigilate the examination.

    • National office shall make arrangements, with the examination centre in Alberta, to ensure that mailings, invigilation procedures, etc., are followed and confidentiality agreements signed.

These arrangements can be made ONLY with Student Services or equivalent.  They cannot be made with representatives of the department in which the candidate is a student/employed.
 

Contact national office if you have any questions regarding your eligibility to take the examination or to meet other clinical certification or membership requirements.
