Excerpted from issue #140 of ASTTBC Connect.

Mandatory reporting of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) was introduced in January 2015.  ASTTBC members are required to achieve an average of 20 points per year over any 5-year period. In January 2017, changes in the point-scoring schedule were introduced to improve clarity and reduce confusion experienced with the previous schedule. The new point system consists of 6 categories or types of activity for which you may earn CPD points. Employed or self-employed members continue to earn 1 point per month. Four categories require 10 hours of activity to equal 1 CPD point. Attending ASTTBC Annual General Meeting (AGM), a CPD event in May and the Technology Awards & Recognition Celebration (TARC) in November continue to equal 1 CPD point per event.
