Summary of Proposal:
Under the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991 (RHPA) and the Kinesiology Act, 2007, the transitional Council of the College of Kinesiologists of Ontario is, among other things, responsible for making regulations respecting the future self-regulating profession of kinesiology in Ontario.

The regulation sets entry-to-practice requirements for kinesiology in Ontario and introduces labour mobility accommodations that will facilitate the registration of kinesiologists in Ontario who are registered in other Canadian jurisdictions. At this time, Ontario is the only jurisdiction in Canada regulating the profession of kinesiology.

The regulation establishes:
a) Two classes of registration;
b) Specific requirements for each class of registration;
c) Rrequirements common to all classes of registration;
d) Reporting requirements;
e) Terms, limits and conditions for all classes of registration;
f) Titles for members;
g) Revocation and suspension provisions;
h) Reinstatement provisions;
i) Requirements for members to carry professional liability insurance;
j) Specific grandparenting provisions; and
k) Labour mobility.
