I see, will I remember another colleague of mine he's got a 25 years experience and yet he was assigned FE exam. This seems to be standard then moving forward.

Ehaskhu - where did you get your undergrad degree? and has it been assess to be equal to a Canadian 4-yr degree? Seems like APEGA is becoming a lot more strict. I've known people from before who were not assigned FE with this much experience.

Not sure cause I have not applied for EIT. But I think it's same.

APEGA does that few years back but not anymore. Now, they use WES for academic assessment

like i said above, i applied way back 2013 and while they are reviewing my application I took and pass both FE exam and NPPE exam. I was thinking those are the only exams i need to pass cause I already have 6 years experience at that time (1 year Canadian). But, when assessment came out, they...

i would say that the industry is getting more firm and increasing the standards. For example, way back before 2018, if you apply with ASET for a technologist certificate, you only need NPPE exam and the right experience and education. Now, they have added a technical exam on top of the existing...

yea, i was thinking that way as well. i think i could pass them but recession came and all hell break lose. i've seen many P.Eng working in Canadian Tire and Walmart and some even to this day haven't been able to come back working in the industry. so on top that and the fact that I got laid off...

way back 2013, I applied with only 5 or 6 years experience, just like you, thinking I already made it but no. they assigned me 5 more exams even after passing the FE. just like you I passed the FE before the decision was given but still it wasn't enough. at that time, I was told by apega...

so you have 3 years experience in India plus 1 year in Canada - if I were you I wouldn't apply just yet. While it says in the website that you only need 4 years experience (which you think you have) but in reality I can almost say with certainty that you still do not have. that 4 years...

i see, i heard stories like this which confirms the advise given to me by a senior friend. he told me to wait for at least 10 to 12 years Canadian experience on top of whatever international experience I have to make absolutely certain before applying if i dont want to take any exams (besides...

probably, not the answer you are looking for but I advise you contact WES as each country have specific requirements. I got my undergrad from Philippines and it's not required for us to send high school certificate, only the post-secondary is required.

somebody mentioned "Yes it is possible to get a job in Canada without a P.Eng license." - this is true BUT there is an overwhelming oversupply of engineers in Canada right now. I know several P.Eng holders personally and from friends, and they are working at Walmart for extended periods of time...

like mentioned by someone here, why were you assigned the FE even though your degree is fine and you have 8 yrs experience? get clarifications. maybe it's your experience they are not satisfied.

i applied in 2013 and was assigned 5 more exams even after passing the FE and so I quit on it. back then WES is not being used for academic assessment. just this month I had a WES assessment saying my degree is equal to a Canadian bachelor's degree. so i kinda thinking that maybe this is the...

cool, at least you don't have to endure much number of exams.

anyone in here applied with APEGA and then was assessed that their degree is not equal to a Canadian bachelor's degree? how did that turned out for you or affected your application?

Hey, how was your degree assessed by WES - is it equal to a Canadian bachelor's degree?
