The aim of this community of practice is to create an open forum to discuss wildland fire and fuel management, share knowledge, find solutions, and develop new ideas. Representatives of FPBC and BC Wildfire Service provide updates on the regulation of the practice of professional forestry and the management of wildland fire and fuels during meetings.

Under the authority of the Professional Governance Act, FPBC is responsible for regulating and registering the people practising professional forestry in BC. FPBC sets the standards and criteria for admission to the profession and continuing practice. FPBC ensures only those with requisite education, experience, knowledge, and competence practise professional forestry and it holds registrants to account for following professional standards via a public complaint and discipline process.
