Membership Categories

CAMRT membership is obtained by applying to the provincial  MRT association in the province in which you are working. If you are working in Quebec, the northern territories or outside of Canada, MRT's can apply directly to the CAMRT.

Should the period between certification and initial application for membership be five (5) years of more, or if your membership has lapsed five (5) years or more, you will be required to provide proof of competency. Also, an administrative fee of $50 will be applied in addition to your membership dues. For more information regarding providing proof of competency, please contact your provincial MRT association, or the CAMRT directly if you are practicing in Quebec, Nunavut, Northwest Territories, Yukon or outside of Canada at 1-800-463-9729 ext. 223 or contact Manager, Member Relations.
