Quality Assurance

One of the three main ways BCCOHP protects the public is by ensuring that all regulated oral health professionals are supported in the provision of safe oral health care throughout their careers. This work is carried out through our Quality Assurance Program (QAP).

Modernized QAP coming April 2026

BCCOHP is establishing a single, modernized QAP for all oral health professionals. The program will be implemented in April 2026. A detailed introduction to the new QAP is available here >>

All pre-existing program requirements and assessments are ending on December 31, 2025. Information to support oral health professionals in this transition period is available at the links below:

Quality Assurance Project Update

Our work to establish a modernized quality assurance program for all oral health professionals has been a key initiative since BCCOHP’s creation through amalgamation in 2022.

The quality assurance programs developed by the legacy colleges that came together remained in place upon amalgamation and will be replaced in April 2026 by a single, modernized QAP.
