How do I apply for a CE exemption and/or exemption status?
Exemption status is granted on a case-by-case basis. You must re-apply on an annual basis (refer to CE Requirements). To apply for a CE exemption, you can download the CE Exemption Request Form. When completing the CE Exemption Request Form, you must be specific when stating your extenuating circumstances. You must include the reason why you were unable to meet the CE Requirements and any other relevant information that can help us assess your situation. When submitting your CE Exemption Request Form, you are required to provide supporting documentation. The following supporting documentation is acceptable: doctor’s certificate for medical reasons or birth certificate/adoption papers of your child for maternity/parental leave. Once we have reviewed your request, a letter will be sent to you to confirm our decision. Remember, incomplete forms will not be processed.
