As CPATA’s CEO & Registrar, Juda is responsible for all aspects of CPATA’s operations. Juda works closely with the Board of Directors to develop and execute the Board’s directions to establish and maintain a modern, risk-focused regulator. As Registrar, he addresses all regulatory matters involving registration, complaints, and discipline. As CEO, Juda also speaks on behalf of the College, and presents at educational events and conferences about CPATA’s work.

Juda is a lawyer by profession, with a focus on professional regulation. After starting his legal career in private practice, he became a policy lawyer at the Law Society of Upper Canada (now the Law Society of Ontario).

Juda is passionate about excellence in professional regulation, public protection, and public interest-based legal services regulation.

Fun fact: Juda enjoys playing hockey and is now an average player (if that) in Toronto’s lowest level recreational league.
