Registration renewal for 2023/2024 will open in late January 2023; before renewing, registrants should ensure registration renewal requirements have been met

Registration renewal for the registration year from April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024, will open in late January 2023. CSHBC will issue a Notice to the Professions on opening day of the registration renewal period. Registrants who wish to maintain their professional status and licenses to practise as RAUDs, RHIPs, or RSLPs in BC must renew their registration, and must do so through the CSHBC Registrant Portal. 

Registration renewal deadline

The deadline for renewing your registration for 2023/2024 is March 31, 2023. You are encouraged to renew your registration as soon as possible after the beginning of the registration renewal period in late January 2023.   

Registration renewal requirements

Before renewing, please ensure the following registration renewal requirements have been met:

  • You hold valid professional liability insurance.
  • You have completed the online learning courses for Jurisprudence and Client Consent (mandatory for all registrants registered with the College on or after April 1, 2022). 
  • Any outstanding fees and/or fines have been paid.

All of the above requirements must be met in order to be eligible to renew your registration for the 2023/2024 registration year.

Certified Practice certificate renewal

Registrants must also renew any Certified Practice (CP) certificates expiring on March 31, 2023 by that date, and should do so through the Registrant Portal

Update contact information in the Registrant Portal

Before renewing registration or CP certificates, please review your contact information in the Registrant Portal and make any necessary updates. It is the registrants’ responsibility to maintain up-to-date contact information to ensure that CSHBC sends emails to the correct addresses. 

Failure to renew, unlawful practice, & unlawful use of a reserved title 

Practising and using any of the reserved titles outlined in the Speech and Hearing Health Professionals Regulation, without renewing your registration, constitutes unlawful practice and use of title. Continuing to practise under the scope of an expired CP certificate also constitutes unlawful practice. The College actively enforces against unlawful practice and use of title as part of its legislated public protection mandate. The College may take regulatory action against anyone who engages in unlawful practice and/or use of title.
