Applicants who do not have an undergraduate engineering degree from a program accredited by the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board (CEAB) will be permitted to register for technical exams to complete the equivalent qualifications to satisfy PEO’s academic requirements for licensure.
The technical examination program consists of four exams:
- Two Group A exams from any engineering discipline
- One Group B exam from any engineering discipline
- One Complementary Studies (CS) exam (non-technical)
The pass mark for all PEO exams is 50%.

Dates and Resources
PEO has partnered with Engineers & Geoscientists BC (EGBC) and the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists Alberta to deliver online exam sessions.
Initial registration and payment are completed via the PEO portal. Separate confirmation with the proctors for each exam is also required.
Please review EGBC’s Status of Online Academic Exams webpage, which includes information and updates regarding the exam timetable and list of supports.
Past Technical Exams
Would you like to see past technical exams to understand how they are set and organized? Past exams are available for download from EGBC’s Past Academic Exams webpage. EGBC uses the same technical exams as PEO.
Past exams are for information purposes only, and reviewing them does not replace preparation for current exams. Answers are not included in past exams, and their format may differ from current and future exams.
If there are no past exams listed for the exam you’re writing, one is not available.
