New national technology benchmark for chemical
technology.
Throughout 2007, the CSCT board has been directly involved in the
structure and content of the new National Technology Benchmark (NTB) for
the chemical technology discipline.
Beginning January 1, 2008, the educational agencies will be able to

launched in October 2006 by the Canadian Technology Accreditation Board
through the Canadian Council of Technicians and Technologists and the
National Council of Deans of Technology.
