Services and Benefits

Technology Professionals BC Association (TPBCA) is a registered Society that provides services and benefits to, and advocates for, technology professionals.

TPBCA strives to ensure British Columbia is well served by technology professionals by supporting their professional growth and development, advocating for appropriate practice rights, promoting education and careers in engineering and applied science technology, working to ensure an adequate supply of technology graduates, and engaging under-represented groups.  TPBCA members may be registered with the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC and other organizations that either regulate technology professionals (as with ASTTBC) or provide membership to further the interests of their members/registrants.   

The TPBCA advocates for the highest standards in the practice of technology professionals in British Columbia.  By supporting TPBCA, you strengthen its ability to be a voice for technology professionals as they carry out their roles in service to British Columbians.
