What is an RMT?

To be a member of the Association, one must hold a degree or diploma from a recognized university or conservatory or meet the necessary qualifications set down by the registering province, thus ensuring a high level of training and a commitment to professionalism.

The Registered Music Teachers' Association is a Canada-wide federation of private music teachers encompassing ten provinces, with over 3,200 members. A Registered Music Teacher is a member of the provincial association, which is affiliated with the national association (CFMTA).

The aim of CFMTA is to encourage and provide the highest calibre of music education possible and to promote high standards of music in each community.
