Engineers Canada is the national organization of the 12 provincial and territorial associations that regulate the practice of engineering in Canada and license the country's more than 160,000 professional engineers.
In addition to being the voice of its constituent members in national and international affairs, Engineers Canada coordinates the development of national policies, positions and guidelines on behalf of the engineering profession. It also promotes greater understanding of the nature, role and contribution of professional engineers and engineering to society, and undertakes federal government relations and national media relations on behalf of, and in consultation with, its constituent members.
Engineers Canada is also responsible for setting accredition and qualification standards for the engineering profession in Canada.
Without the on-going assistance of Engineers Canada, many of the programs and services offered by the CFES would be unable to exist.
