WHO MAY BE CERTIFIED?

Any resident of Canada may apply as a Canadian Problem Gambling Counsellor (CPGC). However, he/she must meet the "Standards Criteria" set by the Canadian Problem Gambling Certification Board. The application process provides the opportunity for the candidate to demonstrate knowledge, skills and competence as a problem gambling counsellor.

The Canadian Problem Gambling Counsellor designation may be applied for by people who are counselling individuals and family members who require assistance with problem gambling. These may include addiction counsellors, social workers, private counsellors, credit counsellors or family and youth workers.

The Canadian Problem Gambling Certification Board welcomes International applicants to participate in the process as well.
