CPD while in Canada

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
I have a dilemma. I may soon be forced legally to have CPD in Canada under my regulated Ontario Professional Engineers Licence or lose it.  CEng is not legally recognised in Canada and it looks like the CEng postnomial is heading the same way.  What do I do here? 30 hours of mandatory Canadian CPD as well as 30 hours of British CPD. Or are these credits globally recognised? Do I have to travel to Britain to do my CEng CPD courses and how applicable will these be? I would be interested to see how this has been thought through for international Engineers in the IET membership. If not, I cannot justify 60 hours of CPD every year. Is the IET then establishing cross agreements with other professional bodies around the world?

    CPD is CPD! There is no concept of geographical boundaries within the IET, so the "Canadian" 30 hours counts for both. Remember that formal courses are just one part of what counts towards CPD. The IET run them and many are excellent, but you don't need to do any. Hope that puts your mind at rest.
