Effective July 1, 2025, health professionals regulated by CHCPBC do not have to report legacy Quality Assurance Program (QAP) requirements to the College. This is to facilitate the design and development of the new Professional & Quality Practice Program (PQPP) to improve client/patient outcomes, and support health professionals’ learning and performance.
If you are not an existing CHCPBC licensee and need information on applying for licensure with the College, see For Applicants.
CHCPBC’s response time to questions and requests from licensees, applicants, and the public may be delayed. The College is making major system changes to licensee portals and the public registry, administering CHCPBC’s first harmonized licence renewal period, and implementing extensive regulatory changes to align with the Health Professions and Occupations Act that came into force on April 1, 2026. Thank you for your patience and respectful interaction with College staff.
