Osborne, B.Sc., J.D., as of July 1, 2012.  Ms. Osborne brings over 20 years of legal expertise to the role with major practice areas in professional regulatory, information and privacy and environmental law.  Most recently, Ms. Osborne was the Registrar and C.E.O. for the College of Veterinarians of B.C., a position she held for over ten years.  Prior to this time, she worked in several other legal capacities including positions within the Appeals and Legal Divisions of WorkSafeBC.

With her extensive legal background and considerable experience in the regulatory arena, Ms. Osborne brings a unique perspective that will greatly assist with College functions and challenges going forward.  Her proficiency in governance, communications and government/stakeholder relations is an asset to the CCBC's short and long-term goals.

Contact information for the Office of the Registrar remains the same.  The CCBC is dedicated to maintaining their high level of excellence during this transition.
