General contractors in British Columbia that are building single-family homes and small residential buildings under Part 9 of the BC Building Code, are required to complete Continuing Professional Development (CPD). This is a condition of their licence renewal. CPD enhances professionalism in the residential construction sector. Importantly, it gives homebuyers confidence that their home is built by a qualified builder to the highest industry standard.
