How do you renew your PEO license before it expires?
You can maintain your professional standing and your ability to practice engineering in Ontario by reviewing your license with Professional Engineers Ontario. If done on schedule and in accordance with protocol, the renewal procedure is simple. This blog outlines the procedure, essential criteria, and practical tips for a simple renewal.
Why You Must Renew Your PEO License
Every year,
licensed engineers in PEO Canada are required to renew their licenses
to maintain their current professional status. The renewal of your license
confirms that you:
● Follow the rules regarding safety and
ethics.
● Remain up to date on the latest
engineering regulations and procedures.
● Maintain your accountability to the
public as a qualified engineer.
You can't
use the PEng title or legally approve engineering work if your license expires.
It is the integrity of the profession and public confidence that is facilitated
by keeping your license current.
When and How Often You Should Renew
Professional
Engineers Ontario requires all license holders to renew annually. The renewal
date is printed on your license certificate and can also be checked in your online
PEO account. You will receive a reminder in two to three months before the
expiry date through email or mail.
Accessing Your PEO Account
To renew
your license, go to the PEO Canada
site and log in. You can create an account with your license number and some
personal information if you're a first-time user.
After
logging in:
● You need to verify that your address,
phone number, and email are up to date.
● Then you get all renewal
notifications and update any outdated contact information.
● Your account dashboard will show
renewal options and payment methods.
First, Understand the
Renewal Requirements
To renew
your license with Professional Engineers Ontario
(PEO), remember that it's more than just paying a fee. It's about showing
that you still meet PEO's standards.
You might have to confirm:
● Your ongoing professional development
activities.
● That you're following any new rules
or updates.
● That you still have good character
and practice ethically.
If you have
a job outside of Canada or are not working, there might be different renewal
options for you.
