As of 1 March 2017, you will no
longer be required to submit your own CRC applications to the College. CDSBC
will automatically submit CRC applications on behalf of registrants whose CRC
is due to expire. Effective 2017/18, the annual renewal fee will include one fifth
of the cost of a CRC and registrants will be asked to consent to a CRC as part
of their annual renewal for the year their CRC expires. To learn more about the CRC process, click here.
Why did we change the process?
The
main reason we changed the CRC process is to reduce the amount of work and
hassle for both CDSBC staff and our registrants. Instead of sending out
correspondence reminding registrants that their criminal record check is still
incomplete, CDSBC will submit all the information that is collected at initial
registration/certification or at annual renewal on registrants’ behalf, with
payment for processing. By doing this, it will reduce processing time,
frustration, and the amount of correspondence we send to you on a regular
basis.
