Frequently Asked Questions

To whom do I mail my CWCE application?

All materials and correspondence should be mailed to:

Once I have submitted a completed application package, when will I know which reports I need to send?

Once we have received a completed application package with your list of 20 evaluations, we will inform you of the committee's choices by telephone.

How many copies of the reports and raw data should I send?

We require TWO copies of each report and ONE copy of the raw data for each report.

How long does the review process take after I've sent my reports?

The review process is on a first come-first served basis and can take 8-12 weeks from the date that we receive your reports. You will be notified by phone and mail when we have the results of your critique.

To whom should I distribute the Professional Reference forms?

The Professional Reference forms should be distributed to three professionals who have referred to you for evaluations. These can include Doctors, Case Managers, Rehab Directors, Clinical Managers, Occupational Health Nurses, Attorneys, etc.

Can I collect the Professional Reference forms and mail them all together to The Matheson System?

No. Once your Professional Reference form is completed by a referral source, that person must mail it directly to us. It is often helpful to the referral source if you provide a stamped, addressed envelope for mailing to RMA.

What should I do if I have left my facility and cannot provide copies of reports for review?

The CWCE certification process is based on assessing your evaluation work through all stages, from your first FCE to your most recent. If you are working towards applying for CWCE, it's a good idea to keep copies of each report you will include on your list of 25. If you are including an evaluation on your list, you must be able to provide copies of that report and raw data. Remember to preserve anonymity by blacking out the client name and any other identifying information.
