About the Guidelines
Guidelines published by CRPO are intended to clarify CRPO’s Professional Practice Standards, providing additional information that will help registrants consider or respond to common situations that arise in practice in a manner that accords with the Standards. Information provided in a guideline is to be considered along with other relevant sources of information, such as the Code of Ethics, applicable Standards, regulations, and laws.
Registrants must rely on their knowledge, skill, and judgment to determine when it is appropriate to apply a particular guideline, being mindful that ultimately, registrants are responsible for their own actions.
Registrants are able to request additional guidelines or topics for consideration here.
