Once an applicant has been officially notified by CAP that their academic credentials have been approved, they may apply for registration as a registered provisional psychologist (hereinafter referred to as "provisional psychologist.")
Applications for registration as a provisional psychologist are reviewed by the Registration Approvals Sub-Committee (RASC) at regularly scheduled meetings. Forms, resources and a calendar of deadlines and meeting dates can be found below in the Forms and Resources section.
NOTICE: At their July 21, 2023 meeting, CAP Council approved new Standards for Supervision of Registered Provisional Psychologists (herein after referred to as Standards for Supervision) to be in effect on September 1, 2023. This new set of Standards for Supervision combine Standards for Supervision Form A and Form B with some additional amendments and will apply to new provisional psychologists approved to be on the provisional register starting September 1, 2023.
