I have not received the password reset email. What do I do?

There could be a couple of possible reasons you are not receiving the temporary password email. 

  • If you are using a Gmail account, it is possible that the email is getting filtered into another folder, such as ‘Important’, ‘Social’ or ‘Promotions’. Please check these folders to see if the temporary password email was sent there. 
  • Try searching for “CRPO” in your inbox. If the email was filtered to another folder outside of your inbox, this could be a quick way to find it. 
  • Your email has security features in place that are preventing the temporary password from reaching your inbox. Confirm you have indicated all emails from “@crpo.ca” are “safe senders” or “trusted senders.” 
  • You are using an email address that does not match the one CRPO has on file. Contact CRPO at info@crpo.ca if you aren’t sure you are using the right email. 

Quality Assurance

I’m not a new registrant. Why am I receiving a message that my New Registrant requirement to complete a self-assessment is overdue?

This message is appearing because you have not submitted a self-assessment in your CRPO user account since 2020. Please follow the link on your dashboard to complete and submit a self-assessment. If you have questions, please email qa@crpo.ca. 

I completed a self-assessment, but I see “Not recorded” on the self-assessment page.

This means that some sections of the self-assessment are incomplete. Click on the magnifying glass to open your self-assessment, ensure you have answered all questions, then click the “Submit” button at the bottom of the screen. 

If you are uncertain which email address you used, please email info@crpo.ca for assistance. Please note that you will be asked to provide information to confirm your identity. 

I completed a self-assessment, why is there a “New” button appearing on the self-assessment page?

Registrants may complete more than one self-assessment. Registrants are required to complete at least one self-assessment during each PD reporting cycle and may complete more than one should they choose to do so. We recommend registrants complete a self-assessment any time they have a change in practice, e.g., working in a new modality; treating a new client population; or returning to active practice after a leave of absence. 

Where is my self-assessment? How can I view my last self-assessment?

In the left-hand menu, click on “Self-assessment”.  

If you have submitted a self-assessment in the past, the status will state “Submitted”. Click on the magnifying glass to view your last submitted self-assessment.  

If you have started, but not submitted, a self-assessment in the past, the status will state “Incomplete”. Click on the magnifying glass to view and complete your last saved self-assessment. 

If you have never completed a self-assessment in your CRPO user account, click on the “New” button to complete and submit a self-assessment.

How do I complete an attestation?

When you are due to report your professional development activities, you will see a message on your dashboard that states, “Your PD cycle attestation form is due. Click here to complete an attestation.” Follow the link to complete and submit the form. The form is due before December 31. 

Using the System 

There’s no scroll bar on the side of the page. How do I scroll up and down?

Here are some methods to scroll on the page without a scroll bar:  

  • If you have a mouse with a scroll wheel, use that to scroll. 
  • If you are on a laptop with a trackpad, you should be able to use two fingers on the trackpad to scroll up and down.  
  • If you click on part of the screen that is not a text field or drop-down, then press the arrow keys on your keyboard, it should enable you to scroll. 

I submitted my application in the previous system (prior to December 2023). When I log into the current system, it says that my application is incomplete and/or my transcript has not been submitted.

This is a result of the system migration. All of the information you entered has been received. You cannot edit the application form because you already submitted it. If anything further is required, you will be contacted by email during staff’s review of your application.

How can I access my receipts/past invoices?

You will be able to see these in your CRPO user account in the future. Please continue to monitor your account. 

I’m trying to upload documents to my application but I can’t select them.

Please go to the Supporting Documents page of the application form to upload all documents. Once it is uploaded, you will be able to select the relevant document(s) on each subsequent page of the application form. 

I’ve filled everything out but I can’t submit my application.

Documentation needs to be sent directly from your educational institution or credential assessment provider to CRPO. Please see the Supporting Documents Checklist on this page: https://www.crpo.ca/applying-to-crpo/ 

Once staff upload the documentation, you’ll be able to submit the application. Please monitor the Supporting Documents page of the application form for updates.
