What's new for renewal 2024-25: Midwives


Jan 2, 2024

Registration renewal starts on February 1, 2024. Here are some things you need to know before you renew:

Important: Last day of renewal and statutory holidays

Registration renewal will end on Sunday, March 31 at 4:30 p.m. Due to statutory holidays, BCCNM offices will be closed on Friday, March 29 and Monday, April 1. While the renewal system will remain open until the registration renewal period closes, there will be no BCCNM staff available from March 29-April 1 to assist you with renewal questions or technical challenges. 

We strongly recommend completing your renewal before March 27 to ensure your renewal is finalized in advance of the office closure. If you do not complete your renewal before the deadline, your registration will expire. You will need to apply to reinstate your registration ($265+GST) in addition to paying your registration fees. If you work without registration, you will be subject to an additional $375+GST surcharge.

2024-25 BCCNM fees

BCCNM registration fees for 2024-25 were announced in Dec. 2023; view the fee summary.

Updates to Quality Assurance for midwives

In 2024, practising midwives will set, complete, and evaluate a minimum of two learning goals a year. This replaces the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) policy and scoring framework, which were rescinded by the BCCNM Board in November 2023. You may use in-progress activities originally associated with the former CPD cycle. This change was made to better align quality assurance requirements for all BCCNM registrants. Learn more.

We acknowledge the rights and title of the First Nations on whose collective unceded territories encompass the land base colonially known as British Columbia. We give specific thanks to the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ speaking peoples the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam) and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations and the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh-ulh Sníchim speaking Peoples the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh Úxwumixw (Squamish Nation), on whose unceded territories BCCNM’s office is located. We also give thanks for the medicines of these territories and recognize that laws, governance, and health systems tied to these lands and waters have existed here for over 9000 years.

We also acknowledge the unique and distinct rights, including rights to health and wellness, of First Nations, Métis, and Inuit peoples from elsewhere in Canada who now live in British Columbia. As leaders in the settler health system, we acknowledge our responsibilities to these rights under international, national, and provincial law.​
