Yes You might need to get a professional license from a regulatory authority before you can start working. Licensing can be compulsory or voluntary, depending on the occupation.
If the license is compulsory, you must be certified before you can practice the occupation and use the professional designation.
If the license is voluntary, you don’t need to be certified to practice this occupation.
Engineers are regulated everywhere in Canada. In order to use one of the reserved titles, you are required to be registered with a provincial or territorial regulatory authority to be authorized to practice as an engineer anywhere in Canada.
If you work under the direct supervision of licensed professional engineers, note that the use of one of the reserved titles is not required in order to practice anywhere in Canada, and therefore, certification is voluntary.
