"NOTICE TO MEMBERS REGARDING MAINTENANCE POINTS" The Maintenance Program is a mandatory requirement for CBCOs and BCQs to maintain their designations. Maintenance provides enhanced credibility and value to designations. It is expected that the Maintenance Program will ensure recognition by other building officials associations, municipalities, agencies and professionals. IMPORTANCE NOTICE: Members who have not accumulated the 30 Maintenance Points required in the current cycle as per the requirements of the OBOA Certification and Maintenance Program will receive a letter. Members who have exhausted all other avenues, may complete a Maintenance Competency Examination to maintain their Professional Designation. The exam has a fee of $150 + HST, the application for the exam will be included with your maintenance letter. Replies to the maintenance letter must be returned to the OBOA office no later than June 1, 2011. The Current Cycle runs from 2008-01-01 to 2010-12-31 this is the current cycle that members need to follow and obtain 30 points for this period. The members maintenance points list on this website now shows all who have obtained points within this period. A members reminder letter will be mailed out in June, or the current year to all those on record who have not accumulated the 30 maintenance points in the current cycle to ensure that all your activities that qualify you for your maintenance points are processed. Please call the OBOA office if you feel that we are missing your maintenance information. Once you have been transferred to the next maintenance cycle your maintenance points will be reset to zero for the new cycle. For those who wish to view point totals throughout the year, visit Members Maintenance Points Maintenance Points apply to members of the Association that are certified "CBCO and BCQ" 1 point is awarded for each instructional hour of professional development received as listed below. (please include agenda and attendance)
Furthermore: Anyone certified between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2010 shall not require any maintenance points until the next three year cycle, which starts: January 1, 2011 and ends December 31, 2013. This amendment was put in place on April 3, 2003 as a recommendation by the Certification Chair to the OBOA Board of Directors for the purpose of effectively tracking maintenance points that fall on the same date as newly certified members and unite to form a single maintenance cycle. This also puts certified members in line with the proposed requirements under Bill 124 for the next cycle, and for objective-based codes for future alignment. GENERAL GUIDELINES:
In the event that you still have unanswered questions, please contact the Certification Committee Chair: Chris Peck |
