In the interest of transparency and public awareness, the AIBC publishes findings and admissions of unprofessional conduct on its web site for a period of six months after the effective date of the finding or admission. A finding or admission of unprofessional conduct may be made at a formal disciplinary inquiry, while an admission arises from the AIBC’s consensual resolution process.
Where sanctions, such as fines or suspensions, may extend or remain unsatisfied beyond the six-month web publication period, publication will continue until the sanction is satisfied or for one year, whichever period is shorter.
