 | | _3137516.jpg) | Transition to New CPD Requirements Now Underway On November 1, 2025, APEGA will launch new continuing professional development (CPD) requirements. As of October 18, 2025, licensed professionals no longer need to complete activity‑based CPD reporting. Any remaining CPD hours and activities that were added after a licensed professional's last submission period have been automatically submitted, and CPD compliance will not be assessed for any partial periods. CPD history can be viewed by logging in to myAPEGA and clicking the CPD History tab. Licensed professionals may see some changes on apega.ca and within myAPEGA and the online education portal over the next two weeks as we prepare to launch the new system. | | BRANCH EVENTS
