A Registered Professional Biologist (RPBio) is an independent practitioner with a wide scope of practice including experimental design, interpretative analysis and interpretative reporting.
Experience includes paid and voluntary activities that occurred in the last 10 years. Up to one year of experience may be pre-graduation.
An applicant who is already a registrant with the College (or an equivalent professional regulator in another jurisdiction) may claim all their applied biology experience gained while registered (pre- or post- graduation).
A thesis-based masters in an applied biology topic counts as 1 year of experience, and a PhD in an applied biology topic counts as 2 years of experience.
