- MLT submits log sheet on June 1, 2021. The log sheet includes activities from June 2018 to May 2021.
- Any activities from June 1, 2021 and onwards can be included in the next PDP submission expiring in 2024. If the 45 hours is reached before the September 15, 2024 deadline, don’t let it sit, submit. You can submit at anytime in 2024 to be able to claim new activities for the next submission.
- If you are an MLT who accumulates over 45 hours before the expiry year and do not want to waste any PDP hours, simply submit early and restart the process. For example, you have 45 hours in 2022, however, the expiry deadline is September 15, 2024. Renew in 2022, and your next expiry deadline will be in 2025.
Remember, if you submit at your expiry date any leftover PDP not submitted will no longer be accepted since you reset from your submission date.
If there are any activities that do not seem to fall within any of the categories mentioned in the guidelines, please fill and submit the PDP credit evaluation form and inquire with the NBSMLT Registrar.
**Faxes are no longer accepted for PDP submissions. Emails & scan to email for audited documents are strongly encouraged**
