Top 5 Tips for Renewing Your Registration

1. Renew your registration early

To avoid a 20% late fee of $156, log in to the Registrant Portal and click your renewal in the 'Latest Renewal' list on the right side of the page to start the process. Early renewal also gives you time to seek advice and avoid last-minute stress. 

Start your 2025-2026 renewal now. 

2. Check your professional liability insurance (PLI) 

Ensure that your PLI coverage is up-to-date and includes: 

• The insurance company’s name 
• The policy number 
• The insured's name 
• The policy period  
• A statement confirming at least $2,000,000 per claim in PLI coverage 

If your employer provides PLI coverage, confirm that the policy covers you as an individual or as part of a group. 

3. Consider resigning if you’re not renewing 

If you are retiring, relocating, or changing professions, you can resign using the online renewal system or by emailing [email protected]. For details on the resignation process, refer to the Resignation page of the website.

Note: To re-register after resigning and if not registered in another regulated Canadian province, you must submit a full application and meet current entry-to-practice requirements, which may include additional coursework or exams. 

4. Request a change of status to return to work 

If you need to change your status to return to work, please note that your status will not automatically update after you submit your renewal. Requests must be submitted by September 15, 2025, to return to work before September 30, 2025. If your request cannot be approved at the staff level, it will be reviewed by the College’s Registration Committee, which may take 3 to 4 months. 

Reminder: You cannot work or hold yourself out in any way as an audiologist or speech-language pathologist in Ontario until your general certificate is reinstated.
