Practice Evaluation and Knowledge Program

Overview of the PEAK Program

UPDATE – The Practice Evaluation and Knowledge (PEAK) program continues to be optional for licence holders. However, PEO intends to implement a mandatory continuing professional development (CPD) program based on the PEAK program. The current target for the launch of the mandatory CPD program is January 2023. Further details on this initiative, including timing, program elements and requirements will be provided as information become available. 

The PEAK program is designed to help PEO licence holders (both practising and non-practising) remain competent as engineers through completion of the continuing professional development program’s three elements: practice evaluation, ethics module and continuing knowledge declaration. Continuing professional development for licence holders is in keeping with PEO’s regulatory, public protection mandate as set out in the Professional Engineers Act.

While the PEAK program is currently voluntary, licence holders’ completion statuses are posted on the PEO directory, reset every year and updated daily.
