Workshop Covers JIBC Certificate in Community Care Licensing

JIBC _Logo_HorizontalIt was a packed room for the fourth BC Care Providers Association’s member-exclusive workshop. The workshop, which was co-hosted by the Justice Institute of BC (JIBC), kicked off with an introduction to the JIBC Advanced Specialty Certificate in Community Care Licensing. While the certificate is geared towards persons who wish to become Community Care Licensing Officers, workshop attendees were offered insight into the licensing process from Deborah Richards, Program Director and Nathan Wright, Program Manager at JIBC. Attendees were briefed on how understanding the program can help improve their own systems and processes in support of maintaining licensure for their facility.

This was the fourth installment in a series of pilot workshops hosted by the BCCPA. With such a terrific response, the BCCPA is pleased to announce it will be offering a series of additional workshops over the coming months.
