2024 Continuing Professional Development Program

The Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Program is undergoing changes for the 2024 reporting cycle. For full details, refer to the 2024 CPD Program Document. Here are some key details to know now:

  1. Removal of the Professional Practice Category: The Professional Practice category is no longer an eligible category for the 2024 CPD reporting cycle.
  2. New Annual Credit and Category Requirements: Licensed members and those with a license waiver for the entire duration of 2024 will have the same annual requirements. The new requirements are to obtain a minimum of 30 credits, in at least 2 categories, plus 1-hour of verifiable ethics training.
  3. Minimum Verifiable Credits: Of the 30-credit annual requirement, a minimum of 12 credits must be obtained from at least one of the three verifiable activity categories. These verifiable categories are Formal Activity, Presentations, and Contribution to Public Knowledge.
  4. Reporting Elsewhere Option: Members with a preferred address registered with APEGS outside of Saskatchewan, and who are reporting their annual CPD information to another Canadian engineering or geoscience regulator, remain eligible to report their annual CPD information to APEGS using the “Reporting Elsewhere” option.
  5. Variation Option: Members in extenuating circumstances who are unable to meet their annual CPD requirements can apply for a reduction by submitting a CPD Variation application before September 30th each year. Applications for the 2024 CPD cycle will be available for download from the APEGS website in May 2024.
  6. Banked Credits: Excess credits from the past two years can be used to help meet the current year’s requirements. Excess credits earned in the current year can be banked for a maximum of two years.

Stay Informed: APEGS will be holding in-person and virtual information sessions throughout 2024 to educate members on the revised CPD Program. Refer to the APEGS events page regularly for information on the next session.
