In addition to providing professional recognition for technologists and technicians, ASTTBC is virtually unique in Canada in that it certifies technical specialists in a growing number of important fields. As the name suggests, technical specialists provide specialized technical services. Those technical specialties in which ASTTBC certifies individuals include:
- Building design
- Construction safety
- Fire protection
- House and property inspection
- Onsite wastewater
- Public works inspection
- Site improvement surveys
- Steel detailing
Since technical specialists are unique to British Columbia, there are currently no transfer agreements in place with other provincial associations.
