Engineers and Geoscientists BC’s first priority has always been public protection – but for most of the organization’s life, it has juggled a mandate and legislative structure that has pulled it in two directions: public protection, and registrants’ interests.
The public and government expect professional regulators to maintain a clear and unwavering focus on public protection. The introduction of the Professional Governance Act and our new Strategic Plan created a need for us to review our activities to ensure our resources are focused on our core accountability of public protection.
