Board Approves $15 Licensing Fee Increase for 2025
Posted on June 4, 2024
The budget accounts for additional resources needed to manage demands on regulatory processes – including significant increases to application, licensing, and exam volumes, as well as increased investigation and discipline files – and also anticipates the impact of divesting revenue-generating advocacy activities through mid-2025.
Despite these added pressures, the Board was able to analyze and refine the budget to ensure the organization could advance this work while also keeping licensing fee increases to a minimum, proceeding only with an adjustment to keep up with inflation.
Additional work supported by the budget includes:
- engagement with government on strategic priorities;
- an improved volunteer management program;
- engagement with registrants to seek feedback on key issues; and
- ongoing work to improve the organization’s foundational programs related to data governance, equity, diversity and inclusion, Truth and Reconciliation, and climate change.
