P.Eng - Professional Engineer

http://www.peng.ca/english/become/how.html

Only licensed engineers have the right to practice engineering in Canada. A P.Eng. is a professional in every sense of the word. Being a P.Eng. means being responsible and accountable for the work you do. It means the Canadian public will respect you as a professional—committed to public safety and continuous learning. And it gives you the mobility to work wherever your job or your career takes you. As the holder of a P.Eng. in one province or territory in Canada, you can easily obtain a licence in any other province or territory, or be licensed to practice in all 13 provinces and territories. You'll have the engineering expertise and licence you need to take full advantage of career opportunities as they arise. The mobility of professional licensure can even open the door to engineering employment possibilities worldwide. In short, the P.Eng. is your ticket to a great career in engineering.


With more than 20 disciplines, from software engineering to civil and industrial engineering, professional engineers design products, processes and systems that protect the environment, enhance the quality of life, health, safety and well-being of Canadians. Managing some of the world's top companies, professional engineers are leaders working at the forefront of emerging technologies, such as genetic modification, and assisted human reproduction. They design bridges, roads and buildings; systems to purify and deliver drinking water, treat waste, and reduce industrial pollution; safer cars, trains, airplanes and transportation networks; and a myriad of other things that people around the world rely on virtually every day.
