Transfer to a Registered Alcohol and Drug Technician (RADT)
Although you are still obtaining the education and experience you will need to advance in your profession, becoming a Registered Alcohol and Drug Technician (RADT) with CCAPP will give you instant recognition from employers and colleagues. Registering with CCAPP demonstrates your commitment to quality and your goal of becoming CCAPP certified!
How to transfer your registration:
A SUDRC transfers to CADTP as a Registered Alcohol/Drug Technician (RADT). Your expiration date will remain the same as it is with CADTP currently. Renewal is required annually before your expiration date. If you are currently expired with CADTP or will expire soon you will need to complete a renewal application after transferring to CADTP.
CCAPP uses an online system called Certemy (cert/ɛ/mə) to process applications. When creating your account it is strongly recommended you use a personal email address, not a company email. This will save you time and frustration if you change jobs later.

An application is complete when every step has a green bubble. A green bubble with a white checkmark means CCAPP staff have verified and approved that step. Any step that is rejected will have a red bubble and must be corrected by the applicant. The processing time will be delayed and not resume until the applicant corrects the rejected step and re-submits all/any rejected steps.
