EGBC's CPD Program Structure

Engineers and Geoscientists BC (EGBC) requires its licensed members to maintain ongoing professional development as part of continued good standing, reflecting the same underlying principle behind CPD programs across Canada: a license earned once needs to be actively maintained through continued learning, not treated as a permanent, static credential.

Required Hours and Reporting

[Insert EGBC's current confirmed hour requirement and reporting mechanism here, sourced directly from EGBC's official CPD guidance.] Members are generally expected to track and self-report their CPD activity in line with EGBC's reporting cycle.

Categories and Qualifying Activities

EGBC's program typically recognizes a range of activity as qualifying CPD — courses, conferences, technical publications, mentoring, and similar professional development formats. Confirm the current, complete list directly through EGBC's official guidance, as specific category definitions can be updated over time.

How Online Courses Fit EGBC's Requirement

Online courses are broadly accepted as legitimate CPD activity across Canadian engineering regulators, EGBC included, provided the content is professionally relevant and properly documented. For BC engineers balancing CPD against a full-time practice, this makes online CPD a practical way to build required hours incrementally, rather than needing to set aside large blocks of time for in-person events.

Wiscademy's CPD courses are built as short, focused modules with completion certificates — a format well-suited to fitting EGBC's ongoing requirement around a working engineer's actual schedule.
