Continuing Education and Competency Program - Self-Assessment

Keep your self-assessment tool in your personal records. You are not required to submit it to the College as part of the CEC Audit Process. | Self-Assessment Tool

The goal of the annual self-assessment is to encourage you to think about or reflect on your practice in the context of the Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. There are no wrong or right answers, but your answers have meaning. For instance, if you self-select a low score to one of the indicators, consider building your learning plan so that you can increase your score over time. You are required to complete a self-assessment annually – generally, just before you renew your registration – as part of the CEC. This tool can be used for 5-years' worth of self-assessments so that you can look back over the years and monitor your own progress.

Instructions for Completing the Self-Assessment Tool

The self-assessment tool is structured around the massage therapy Standards of Practice and the Code of Ethics documents, and it is designed to be used every year for five years, so you can track your progress. Read each indicator and rate your individual competency using the following scale:

  1. Novice: You have little or no experience with the practice associated with the indicator and need additional learning in order to meet it.
  2. Intermediate: You have minimal experience with the practice associated with the indicator and need some additional learning in order to meet it.
  3. Proficient: You satisfactorily meet this indicator because you have sufficient experience with the practice associated with it.
  4. Expert: You confidently meet this indicator because you have a great deal of experience with the practice associated with it.
