Continuing Competence Program

The Health Professions Act (HPA) defines competence as “the combined knowledge, skills, attitudes and judgment required to provide professional services”. The HPA requires all Colleges to have a Continuing Competence Program (CCP) in place to monitor the ongoing competence of regulated members and enhance the provision of professional services.

Under the HPA, participation in the CCP is mandatory for all registrants on the General Register and is a requirement for practice permit renewal; non-compliance is considered to be unprofessional conduct. Registrants are required to submit their CCP documentation online annually as part of their practice permit renewal process.

• All regulated members who wish to renew their practice permit on the general (practicing) register, must complete
  the CCP.
• The program must be completed online through the Regulated members’ portal.
• Each year, Regulated members will be informed by email, when the CCP opens and the deadline for completion.
