The College began implementing our three-year strategic plan in 2019, and one of the first projects we undertook to enhance our capacity as a regulator was upgrading our aging online database and member portal. After a year of planning, development and testing, we’re ready to launch the new system next month. We’re using the same software as before (Alinity) but a newer version that features necessary security enhancements, a more user-friendly interface and a wider array of member functions.

One important new function to note is the management of additional and enhanced authorizations. All applications and renewals for additional and enhanced authorizations will be submitted and processed online through the member portal starting August 3, 2020. Paper applications received after this date cannot be processed. During the annual registration renewal process, members will be required to renew their authorizations online.

We encourage all members to check the personal and employer details in their current profiles by July 17, 2020, to ensure the information transferred to the new database is correct and up to date. The email address you have on file will become your username in the new system. We strongly recommend you use a personal email address rather than a work email address, and that you check it regularly. The College will use this email address to communicate with you, and these messages may sometimes include sensitive information.

The new system is scheduled to go live on July 20, 2020, and members will receive an email with instructions on how to access it once it’s live. Please note that you will be unable to access the member portal and certain services on July 19 as we make the transition from the old system to the new. More features will be added to the new system in the coming months, and we encourage you to bookmark our Member Portal Updates page to stay informed about the latest developments and contact the registration department at registration@acmdtt.com if you have any questions or concerns.
