Excerpted from the Canada Career Guide
Under Canadian law, no one can practice the profession of engineering without a license. Twelve provincial and territorial associations carry out licensing, set standards, and regulate the profession. An engineering license is valid only within a specific jurisdiction, but there is a mobility agreement among the provinces and territories regarding transfer of licenses. Once registered or licensed as a member of a provincial or territorial association, engineers are known as professional engineers and are eligible to use the designation P.Eng. after their names.
Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (CCPE)
The CCPE is the national organization of the 12 provincial and territorial
associations that regulate the practice of engineering in Canada and license
the country’s 157,000 professional engineers. Anyone who wants to practice
engineering in Canada must obtain licensing from CCPE. CCPE serves member
associations by delivering national programs that ensure the highest standards
of engineering education, professional qualifications, and ethical conduct.
This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
