Voluntary Professional Registration

The Canadian Horticulture Therapy Association has devised a means for professionals who practice Horticultural Therapy to voluntarily become registered. Registration is an active way of establishing credibility among other professions. HT is a professional discipline that is theory-based and universally adaptable.

The registration process is explained in a Professional Registration Package. There is a $25.00 cost. For a package to be sent to you please contact

Review times are February, June, and October.

You can send your packages anytime and they will be reviewed during the months stated. Please give the Registration Committee eight weeks to complete the review process. These are Volunteer Workers who are scattered across the province and country. First, the packages must be received by Administration, next they are checked to see if they are complete. Once they have been checked, they are then distributed to each of the 5 reviewers. This process can take up to 2 weeks. They are then reviewed and sent back to Administration.

You are urged to ask questions before sending in your package - this can help you save time and money. The Registration Committee may be contacted through our Registration Coordinator - Julie Martin,

These tips are for your information and the Sample Registration Form provided is invalid for actual registration. You must order a numbered package to apply.
