COTBC Board Member Dies Suddenly
Duncan Little who joined the COTBC last year passed away on January 10th after an intensive battle with a rare but aggressive cancer. He was very active in his community and will be greatly missed by family, friends and other organizations such as COTBC who benefited from his wisdom, humour and goodwill. A memorial service will be held on Friday, February 1 at 1:00 p.m. at the Cascade Community Church in Abbotsford.

Declaration Form Due February 15
Your signed Continuing Competency Declaration form must be sent to the college office by February 15. Faxed copies are not accepted. This is a requirement of registration. For more information, visit Confirming Competency on this website.
New Code of Ethics Released
After two years of extensive reviews of numerous codes of ethics and ethical frameworks the Code of Ethics Review Panel developed a code that is meaningful to everyday practice, yet not prescriptive.
The new Code of Ethics was mailed with the Winter issue of InStep. It can also be downloaded from our Practice Documents section. The college considers the code to be a living document, and looks forward to your input into its continued development.
Interested in Serving on a College Committee?
Vacancies are pending in several college committees: Continuing Competence, Standards and Discipline. Contact the registrar for further information and/or download a ‘committee expression of interest form’ (PDF).
