Law Enforcement - Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
The Ontario Association of Property Standards Officers was founded in 1974 with the purpose to provide training to all municipal personnel who are engaged in the administration or the enforcement of legislation governing the maintenance, occupancy, repair and improvement of property and the environment.This Association conducts annual seminars and regional conferences at various locations throughout Ontario. These training sessions afford the membership the opportunity to upgrade their knowledge of modern building techniques and revised or new legislation. The benefits derived from this training are important due to the fact that government policies or regulations, building technology, materials and methods of inspections are constantly being transformed.In 1990 the Association expanded the training program to include municipal committee members and Provincial Government employees involved in Property Standards. A further expansion in training occurred in 1992 to allow private sector individuals such as property managers, landlords, real estate agents and other interested parties the opportunity to become better acquainted with Property Standards.On June 25, 1992, the Provincial Government, in recognition of the continuing endeavours of OAPSO to educate and train its membership, passed private legislation that permitted certification of those members of the Association who meet the established qualifications. Those members who qualify for certification are permitted to use the designation of C.P.S.O."Certified Property Standards Officer".The Association currently has representation from municipalities and Government agencies from across Ontario. This broad coverage of the province provides the membership with a diversity of experiences to draw upon.
