Module Credits Program

CHPTA Members have an allotted number of Module Credits they may use towards any of the courses in CHPTA’s Skills Training Program. Each course will specify how many Module Credits they’re worth and Members can apply their respective Module Credits to the course.

Module Credits are flexible and allow Members the option to send their team to join courses that work best for them. For example, Members with two Module Credits may send two team members to a course that is worth one Module Credit, or send one team member to a course worth two Module Credits. If a Member wants to take a course that is worth more Module Credits than they have, they can use the Module Credits as a discount on the course (ie use one Module Credit and pay 50% discount on a course that is worth two).

The number of credits each member have is dependant on the Membership Level:

• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales less than $5M: Two (2) Module Credits
• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales between $5M to $7.499M: Three (3) Module Credits
• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales between $7.5M to $14.999M: Four (4) Module Credits
• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales between $15M to $24.999M: Five (5) Module Credits
• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales between $25M to $49.999M: Eight (8) Module Credits
• CHPTA Manufacturing and Agency Members with Gross Sales over $50M: Twelve (12) Module Credits
• CHPTA Affiliate Members: One (1) Module Credit

Module Credits expire each year and cannot be carried forward to future years. To apply your Module Credits to a particular course, email Henry Wong at hwong@chpta.ca.
