Requirements
CPHR BC & Yukon requires all designation holders to complete 60 CPD Hours within a rolling three-year cycle, with a minimum of 10 hours annually.
Within each three-year cycle, CPD activities must link to a minimum of three competency areas of the CPHR Competency Framework. Competency areas include HR-specific domains such as Total Rewards, Learning and Development, Workforce Planning, HR Technology, Innovation, Organizational Change, Labour and Employee Relations, Health and Wellness, and Inclusion and Diversity, as well as general competencies such as Ethical Practice, Continuous Learning, Leadership, Business Acumen, and Communication.
The reporting system uses a rolling three-year cycle. For example, the period 2022–2024 rolls forward in 2024 to cover 2023–2025.
Accreditation & Course Eligibility
CPHR BC & Yukon does not require CPD activities to be pre-approved. Activities that have not been pre-approved may still qualify if they contribute to professional development and build competencies in the CPHR Framework.
Acceptable activities may include:
