‘Providing the public with information about Earth and its mysteries is the way I share my passion for geology.’ 

-
John Clague, P.Geo.

“Being a professional has been a large part of my career.  It has given me rights – and with that, responsibilities. It has allowed me to work on many interesting projects in Canada and abroad.  It has required me to do the best job I possibly can to protect the public and the environment.”

-
Doug VanDine, P. Geo.

“Being a P.Geo is important because it shows how important my dedication and commitment to the profession is to the public. Dedication to high expectation of practice and that I am individually accountable”

-
Jeff O’Keefe, P.Geo.

Who We Are

Canada’s geoscience professionals are governed by the provinces and territories in which they work. Today, 10 regulatory bodies register and regulate the professional practice of more than 10,500 Professional Geoscientists, 1,200 other geoscience licencees and another 2,400 Geoscientists-in-Training. Recognizing the need for a national alliance for the profession, in 1996, these regulatory bodies formed Geoscientists Canada to coordinate activities and to represent the profession at a national and international level. Geoscientists Canada is funded by 9 regulatory bodies and run by a Board of Directors that includes three elected officers.  One Director is appointed by each regulatory body to represent that province or territory. The Board of Directors is responsible for establishing policy and setting the strategic direction of Geoscientists Canada; an Executive Committee ensures the Board’s directives are fulfilled. Day-to-day operations and all implementation activities are led by Geoscientists Canada’s CEO. Learn more about the team here and about Geoscientists Canada’s objectives here.
