THE FELLOW APPLICATION GUIDELINES The Fellow Application Guidelines (herein referred to as “the Guidelines”) are designed to provide you with details pertaining to the application process and transparency of the information you are required to submit to the CMSA in your application for recognition as a Fellow (FCMSA). It is an obligatory requirement for each candidate to read in full all of the information within the Guidelines prior to submitting their online application to the CMSA. The rationale behind this stipulation is that the candidate is fully prepared and has all the information to hand for the successful completion of their online application. For all questions and or queries related to an application the candidate should on the first occasion refer to the Guidelines, for detailed information prior to contacting the CMSA. APPLYING TO BE A FELLOW To be eligible to apply for an affiliate membership a candidate must demonstrate they have the advanced knowledge, skills, experience, and/or qualifications as outlined within the pre-requisite requirements pursuant to a Fellow as follows: • minimum of ten (10) years FTE (18240 hours) vocational case management experience, including practical application (i.e. case management practice and/or the management/supervision of case managers or case management programs) or theoretical application (i.e. case management education or research). The individual must have 12 months (1824 hours) experience in the last three (3) years;

• seventy two (72) hours of Professional Training and Development activities in the past three (3) years;

• Certificate of Attainment for CMCT01 Case Management (National Certification) Competency Training; and

• two (2) signed professional references.

All applications for recognition as a Fellow must be submitted to the CMSA online. The CMSA will not accept nor process any applications (either full or part thereof) received by mail, email or facsimile. Accordingly, you will be required to provide certified copies (as outlined within the Guidelines) of all original documents as evidence in support of your application. For these documents to be submitted to the CMSA at the time of your online application it is important that you have access to a scanned copy of each and every certified document to attach (i.e. upload from your personal computer). If you are not “computer savy” the CMSA recommends that you seek assistance from another individual or your employer to support you in completing your online application. The CMSA regrets to inform you that we cannot provide you with this support at the time of your online application.
