Public Services and Procurement Canada — Controlled Goods Program

Limestone Learning is certified by Public Service and Procurement Canada (PSPC) (formerly Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC)) for the Controlled Goods Program (CGP). This allows our team to provide learning and development services and support for defence contractors to the Government of Canada, including the Department of National Defence (DND).

What is the Controlled Goods Program?

The Controlled Goods Program is a strict registration and compliance program that plays a vital role in the prevention and detection of the unlawful examination, possession or transfer of controlled goods (CGs) in Canada.

CGP certification permits companies to “examine, possess or transfer controlled goods in accordance with the Defence Production Act and the Controlled Goods Regulations.” It is a rigorous process, including extensive background and security checks for every team member involved in controlled goods projects.

How does our CGP certification help you?

Controlled goods generally have military or national security significance. Our commitment to safeguarding controlled goods and technology is reflected in various measures, which include employee training, record-keeping and audits. By implementing thorough security assessments and conducting background checks on our personnel, we ensure that only authorized individuals have access to sensitive materials. Additionally, our adherence to the CGP's established policies and guidelines ensures that we remain compliant with export controls and other relevant regulations.

Through these efforts, we strive to protect national interests, uphold public safety, and contribute to global security. Limestone Learning’s CGP certification guarantees that you can partner with us in confidence while we develop your learning solutions securely and seamlessly, in compliance with relevant regulations.
