How CTDP cohorts run, what each stage costs, and how to be first to know when the next cohort opens.

Program status

CTDP registration is paused while the Institute strengthens the program. Join the next-cohort list at my.thei4pl.ca/certification/apply and the certification team will email you the dates when registration reopens. Current candidates and certified members can pay certification fees online at my.thei4pl.ca/certification/fees.

How a cohort runs

  • Cohort intake: applications are accepted by cohort; the most recent cohorts started on 1 July.
  • Knowledge exam: offered quarterly. Three hours, 100 multiple-choice questions, self-proctored and open book, 75% to pass.
  • Skill demonstration: pre-approval up to 60 days before your intended date; demonstrations are scheduled quarterly to the cohort timeline.
  • Interview: scheduled once the skill demonstration is assessed.
  • Time to complete: up to one year from payment, typically about nine months.
