Continuous Improvement. Commitment to Excellence. Technical excellence is expected of today's engineers. But long-term success also requires: Continual Professional Development In a world where technical knowledge can be obsolete in a matter of months, continual professional development is essential—it's also something Professional Engineers are committed to. Professional competence is the cornerstone on which the P.Eng. licence is built. The profession's code of ethics requires licenced engineers to be fully competent to undertake the engineering work they do, and to make public safety as well as the protection of the environment their first priority. It's why the engineering solutions designed by a P.Eng. are sustainable, right for the long-term success of your company, and great for your public image. Increasingly, Canada's provincial and territorial professional engineering licensing bodies are setting guidelines for the type of continual training engineers should pursue, and ensuring that the Professional Engineers you hire will adapt and grow with your company over time. Personal Commitment to Public Safety When it comes to engineering, ethics is more than a philosophy. Professional Engineers commit to a demanding code of ethics, setting public safety as their first priority, and always respecting the impact of their work on the environment, property and human life. They understand the legal dimensions of their work, and they know that their licence to practice depends on keeping their promise to act accordingly. That attitude protects your reputation, your image, and your bottom line. The Courage to Work to the Highest Standards There is no more demanding judge of an engineer's professional competence than his or her peers. Professional Engineers are directly accountable to their profession, and their more than 160,000 peers across the country. Driven by confidence and personal commitment to their profession, they hold their work up to the highest standards every day of their careers. TOP
