As a new professional development season gets underway, the Order is proud to present the results of its first unified program. The new enhanced passport format, which incorporates tools and services with training activities, and the increase in the number of e-learning activities no doubt contributed to the program’s success in 2013-2014.

  • Stable satisfaction rating of 4.7/5 for course content and instructors.
