 ÜProfessional Practice & Ethics Exam

Date and Location | Required Study Materials | Tuition and Registration Information | Registration Form | Scope & Syllabus of PPE | Sample Questions

As a prerequisite for registration in the Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Newfoundland and Labrador, new graduates and other first-time applicants are required to successfully complete an examination on the topics of professional practice and ethics. Members-in-Training must have completed at least two years of the required four years of work experience to be eligible to write. The exam is normally offered each year during January, April, July and October.

A 2-day preparatory seminar is offered by the Continuing Engineering Education Division, Memorial University of Newfoundland. Please note that participation in the seminar is not required; however, an in depth self-study program will be necessary in order to pass the required examination. The seminar is intended to be an educational experience and to facilitate understanding of the topics covered by the National Professional Practice and Ethics Examination. It is not, however, intended to replace the need for self-study which will be necessary in order to be successful in passing the examination.
