Technology Professionals BC (TPBC) advocates for Technology Professionals in the fields of engineering and applied science technology. Our individual members may be regulated by the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC or other professional regulatory bodies or are not affiliated with any regulatory or organized group.
Membership is also open to businesses, employers, NGOs, educational institutions, and other organizations that have an interest in supporting TPBC and its purpose.
TPBC advocates for Technology Professionals in their professional and career interests in a number of ways, including:
Technology Professionals BC was incorporated in response to the changing role with the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC as it carries out its professional regulatory service under the Professional Governance Act (PGA).
TPBC is not a professional regulatory organization, rather it is a ‘professional organization’ as defined in the PGA that advocates for Technology Professionals, in service to the public. TPBC is an independent advocacy organization which has no direct affiliation with ASTTBC or other professional regulatory organization. The Professional Governance Act does not in any way regulate professional organizations such as TPBC or lend authority to advocacy activities conducted by professional organizations.
TPBC anticipates engaging and working with other agencies as it pursues its mandate and these could include professional regulatory organizations, NGOs, employers, educational institutions, governments and other stakeholders.
As part of the work of TPBC we will honour and celebrate the long and rich history of BC Technology Professionals. Toward this end TPBC is currently working with several early members of ASTTBC, notably Doug Duncan (ASTTBC President 1972-1974) and Alan Cheek (ASTTBC Council 1960s and 1970s). Several Past Presidents and others are working with TPBC to pull together the historical contribution of technology professionals from the launch in 1958 of the Society of Architectural and Engineering Technologists of BC (SAETBC).
