Hi everyone,
I am in the process of applying for my P.Eng. i was wondering if anyone knows the answer to having a direct supervisor that is register as a P.Eng of another province but not register at Apega, can he qualify for your P.Eng supervisor

In my case, no questions at all. Just sat tight. Waited too long.
By the way, you guys know when BOE is held in Feb.? I'm in stuck on the BOE review...
No one knows! Elections may push it to the end of the month!
How long was the review period for you? I am a CEAB approved school grad and I have been stuck at internal review for 3 months.
It seems very normal. I have 10 years international + 2 years Canadian experience with an international undergraduate.
Complete all documentation in Feb. 2019

Academic Examiner Complete in Nov 2019

Case to Board In Progress
You are almost there! you should be a P.Eng by the end of this month.
I won't have to go through the Academic Examiner and looking at your timeline, I should expect something by May.
Hi my friends
I wanted to ask you for some help.
Namely, what if you work Engineering job under PEng supervisor, and you are still waiting for evaluation for Members in training, and that usually takes a year.
Can you claim that Canadian experience even though it’s obtained before you are registered as member in training?
My spouse is in that kind of situation, and little worried that that experience wouldn’t be recognized.
Thank you in advance

Hi Traveler,
You don’t need an EIT to claim work experience under a P.Eng.
Having an EIT is beneficial because it proves to employers that you meet the academic requirements. It also speeds up your application for P.Eng because they won’t redo your academic review.
Thank you so much for your reply, I really appreciate it.
I’m glad to hear that.
Have a nice day
Also there is a little glitch to that. IN some cases APEGA can give you a special classification between EIT and PENG until you prove your 12 months of Canadian experience. I don't know the exact term for that but I participated in an APEGA presentation, a guy asked about his case and the guy from APEGA confirmed it. The 12 months of Canadian experience is not a written rule, but you need them.
The process is getting harder and harder by the month.
I was basically encouraged to redo my whole case just mentioning my Canadian experience, their actual words is "best interest" and the phone answer is that the decision is up to you. Who will take the risk?
Thank you for your advice. We plan to submit the forms for current experience as soon as the EIT is entitled.
Hi Aamenah, how did you learn about the FE exam? Did you receive email from them?
I checked my account and my application was with board for feb2020, and my application status is not there anymore, but I did not receive any email from APEGA today?
