The primary benefit of a membership is certification with CTTAM. As a certified CTTAM member, you are permitted to use one of two titles: Certified Technician or Certified Engineering Technologist. You are also able to use the designations: C. Tech. or C.E.T., depending on your certification. These designations are recognized by industry and employers and indicate that you are a member of a respected, professional association. A lot of employers require that their employees become certified and will often make this a requirement for job placement and upgrading. Quality-based selection is now an important factor in awarding contracts to companies. Active certified members are able to transfer their certification to other provinces in Canada. As a certified member you may also vote in the association’s elections, hold office and participate on one of CTTAM’s many committees. There are also many discounts on different services available to you as an CTTAM member along with access to the Canadian Technical Employment Network (CTEN) job bank network at www.cten.ca.
