Objectives
• Role of PEO
• Enforcement vs. Discipline
• Licensing Requirements– CEAB Graduates– International Engineering Graduates (IEG)
• Engineering Experience
• Benefits of Engineering Intern Program
![Page 3: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Practice of Engineering
• Any act of designing, composing, evaluating, advising, reporting, directing or supervising;
• Wherein the safeguarding of life, health, property or the public welfare is concerned;
• That requires the application of engineering principles (does not include practicing as a natural scientist).
![Page 4: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
PEO’s Role & Function
• Who - self regulating body for P. Engs.
• What - regulate and set standards
• Where - across the province of Ontario
• When - 1922 right to title; 1932 right to practice
• Why - Public safety and welfare
• How - Admissions, discipline and enforcement

Enforcement Unit
Enforcement v. Discipline
ENFORCEMENT - Concerned with practice of professional engineering by non-engineers, improper use of engineering titles by non-engineers, and unauthorized independent practice by engineers without a C of A.
DISCIPLINE – Handles complaints against licensed engineers for incompetence, negligence, or professional misconduct.
![Page 6: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Enforcement Unit
Employer relations & use of titles
The purpose of title protection is to make it clear who is a licensed engineer. Improper use of “engineer” in job title can be confusing.
Be polite. Explain why you can’t call yourself an engineer yet.
Get in touch with us. We will happy to explain it to your employer.

Engineering Experience
5 Required Elements:• Application of Theory
• Practical Experience
• Management of Engineering
• Communication Skills
• Social Implications of Engineering
![Page 11: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Application of Theory
• Refer to specific engineering principles/theory
• What options are available to you?
• What important parameters did you consider?
• Why is the selected method appropriate under the circumstances?
![Page 12: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Practical Experience
• What considerations did you have to make due to real world conditions?
• What codes and standards did you use as part of your engineering work?
• Why was it necessary to refer to these – what is the basis for these?
• How did limitations of time, material, personnel, etc. affect your engineering work?
![Page 13: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Management of Engineering
• These are the business aspects of engineering, such as:– Planning;– Scheduling;– Budgeting
• How do these concepts fit into the engineering work that you do?
• Are you responsible for controlling any of these that affect other members of the team?
• Have your responsibilities increased in this area? How?
![Page 14: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Communication Skills• How do you report your work?• Any written reports? Who receives these?• Opportunities for presentations?• Participation in meetings?• Any examples of having to promote your
engineering ideas through a reporting mechanism? What was the result?
![Page 15: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Social Implications of Engineering
• What are the potential effects, both positive and negative, of the engineering project?
• How are negative effects mitigated?• Who are the end users of the engineering work?
Were they consulted on the project? How?• What involvement have you had in the process?

Engineering Experience Record
• Not a Resume;
• Include specific engineering work that you performed;
• Explain the nature of problems you solved;
• Identify design/analysis factors you considered;
![Page 22: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Referee Requirements
Minimum legal requirement: one P. Eng.
supervisor for one year*
– Ideal goal: one direct P. Eng. supervisor plus another P. Eng. familiar with your work, per place of employment, over the entire 48 months.
– Supervisors must be sufficiently familiar with the details of the candidate’s work
*Note: If this is all that is provided, an experience interview will be arranged.
![Page 23: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Cross-Discipline
PEO’s Concern: Work experience is not in compliance with educational background
• Must provide us with evidence of educational courses or training to bridge the gap between your educational background and the work undertaken
![Page 24: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Sales, Marketing and Patent Activities
PEO’s Concern: Little or no requirement for engineering expertise and/or opportunity to practice engineering training autonomously
• Must provide us with specific examples of hands-on involvement and contribution to solving the clients problems
• Describe to us your engineering thought processes, rather than simply promoting employers’ equipment/products
![Page 25: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Project Management and Supervision
• PEO’s Concern: business role not requiring engineering training
• The Candidate should demonstrate through specific examples that his/ her role includes solving engineering technical problems that the subordinates are not able to, instead of delegating all technical problems
![Page 26: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Quality Engineering Experience
• PEO Concern: Inspections/testing/ for verification purposes only, is technician level
• Must demonstrate involvement with process design modifications as a result of findings of non-conformances, including the application of engineering analysis or calculations
![Page 27: PEO’s Engineering Intern Program Experience Requirements](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022020417/568146b8550346895db3e278/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
