If the registrant has major non conformance indicated, their file will be referred to the Audit and Practice Review Committee. It will be up to the committee to decide to close the file, initiate a practice review, assign an additional compliance audit, or refer the file to the Investigation Committee. The compliance audit process is confidential, except in narrow circumstances where the assessor or the Audit and Practice Review Committee is required by superseding legal and ethical duties to report dangerous or illegal practice to another body, including the Engineers and Geoscientists BC Investigation Committee.

Except where obligated to do so in accordance with legal or ethical duties, Engineers and Geoscientists BC will not release any information related to a registrant’s compliance audit to a third party, including their employer.

process. The process starts with a documentation review by an assessor. Registrants will be asked to provide all requested information, files, or records in their possession or control within a specific time frame. If necessary, the assessor may ask for an interview with the individual. Once the review of the audit is finished, registrants may be asked to complete one or more Corrective Action Plans (CAPs). The final report provided to the registrant determines the next steps. If the registrant is in compliance, their file is closed. If the registrant has minor non-conformance issues, they will be required to submit their CAP to correct the items in the allotted time.
