College of Applied Biologists

The College of Applied Biologists is a professional regulator that is committed to acting in the best interest of the public by ensuring that all registrants meet and maintain the ethical standards of professional competency and conduct. The College of Applied Biologists was created by The College of Applied Biology Act in 2003. It was the only legislation of its kind in North America, and was the first time applied biologists have been granted full professional status through self-governing legislation. In 2021, the College and its registrants came under the Professional Governance Act.
