CMALT Holders : Updating your Portfolio

CMALT portfolios should be updated and reviewed every three years. CMALT Holders are notified when they are due to submit updates for the portfolio review. There is no charge for the process, but your Certified Membership must be current. 

 

CMALT Assessors 

CMALT is a peer-assessed accreditation scheme and assessors play an important role and carry out assessments as part of their continued professional development. 

 

CMALT Accelerator Workshops

We now offer additional optional 1-day standalone workshops which are designed to help CMALT candidates fast-track work on their portfolio in order to submit it to peer review. The workshop will provide tailored support for individuals as well as peer support in a group of CMALT candidates all working towards CMALT accreditation.  Visit our Events Page to book and find out more.
