The term “DTR” – short for Define The Relationship – can feel a bit intimidating, but it’s something that naturally comes up in every relationship. And with the new CEC cycle starting, now is a great time to clarify the relationship between you and CMMOTA.
As your professional association, we see all our members as professionals. Whether you’re an associate or full member, joining CMMOTA represents a significant commitment—both in completing your education and building your career. With that membership comes responsibilities, known as membership requirements, which vary by membership class. If you’re unsure of yours, please review them here: Membership Requirements.
While our team monitors compliance and sends reminders when needed, it’s ultimately your responsibility to manage your requirements. This includes things like completing CECs, renewing First Aid or your Vulnerable Sector Check on time, and submitting all necessary documents before they expire.
As we continue to grow, we count on our members to stay proactive. Starting the CEC cycle now with intention will help you stay on top of your requirements throughout the next three years.
Another key part of professionalism is staying informed. CMMOTA emails—including policy updates, the bi-weekly newsletter, and important reminders—are our main way of communicating with you. If our emails are landing in your junk folder, please add info@cmmota.com to your contacts to ensure you don’t miss anything important.
At CMMOTA we’re committed to serving you with excellence—but we need this to be a two-way relationship. For some, that may mean being more proactive and engaged moving forward. We’re proud of our incredible community, and we’re excited to keep growing together!
