  5. An employer in Ontario hires someone who claims to be a 'Registered Kinesiologist' but that person is not on COKO's public register. What should the employer do?

    Answer: Demonstrate current competence, which may include completing additional education or assessments

    Members returning from extended inactivity may need to demonstrate current competence through additional education or assessments, as COKO must ensure public protection.

  7. What is the primary purpose of the 'name reservation' or 'protected title' provisions in the Kinesiology Act, 2007?

    Answer: To protect the public by ensuring only qualified, registered individuals can claim to be Registered Kinesiologists
