C-48, r. 14 - Regulation respecting mandatory continuing education for Québec chartered accountants who practice public accountancy

Full text
13. Members may be exempted, for a given reference period, from having to attend a continuing education activity listed in the program adopted by the Order if they can demonstrate that they are unable to attend due to overwhelming circumstances.
The fact that the disciplinary council, the Professions Tribunal, or the board of directors has suspended or imposed limitations on a member’s right to engage in professional activities, or struck a member off the roll, does not constitute overwhelming circumstances.
Exemptions are not to exceed 12 months and are renewable.
O.C. 648-2009, s. 13.
