Is the "Engineer in training" mandatory for Saskatchewan PNP application?

[inamahmed]

Hi Members,
I am planning to apply for the Saskatchewan PNP program(Express Entry/Occupation on Demand) skilled worker category. My NOC is 2173(software engineers)

However, I am confused whether I have to take APEGS Engineer-in-Training certificate for applying. Is it mandatory?

Thanks in advance for your support.
