Under the CPD program, members are responsible for their own professional development, and must comply with the CPD policy, and only practice in their area of competence. Annual certification is required by checking a box electronically through the online member profile. Members should keep professional development records for their own purposes; however, Engineers Nova Scotia does not require copies of these records, except for disciplinary or audit purposes. 

The following groups of members are exempt from the current CPD program: 

                             o   Non-resident members registered with the engineering regulator in their province of residence                        
                             o   Non-Practicing Life and Honorary Life members (Practicing members are not exempt.)
                             o   Retired Non-practicing members
                             o   Members on parental leave and unemployed members (while not practicing).          

The current CPD Policy is available HERE.
