MEMBERS-IN-TRAINING
MIT Applications
Enrollment as a Member-in-Training for the duration of the period when gaining your post-graduation experience is the recommended route to obtaining professional status, but it is not mandatory. You may remain enrolled as an MIT for up to 5 years while you gain appropriate work experience. In certain cases, you may request an extension beyond 5 years.
By enrolling as an MIT and participating in our program, this helps you ensure that you gain experience that is rich and varied to allow you to progress to the level of maturity required to make reliable professional judgments.
This period will provide you with the opportunity to develop your skills and judgement while being supervised by a Professional who will give you feedback.
To become enrolled as a Member-in-Training (MIT) in NB, you must:
- Be a resident of NB
- Be academically qualified: Have graduated with a CEAB-accredited Bachelor of Engineering degree or a Bachelor of Science degree in geosciences from a Canadian university which meets Geoscientists Canada’s Geoscience Knowledge & Experience Requirements.
- Be able to communicate effectively in English or French: If your bachelor’s degree was taken in English or French, you are exempted from providing further proof to your language ability. If your bachelor’s degree was not taken in English or French, there are multiple ways you can demonstrate that you can communicate effectively. Contact APEGNB for more information on language requirements.
Use the quiz below to ensure you are eligible for this type of membership and to access the online application form. Please note you must ensure you have all supporting documents for your application.
If we do not receive all required supporting documents within 1 year of the date of your application submission, your file will be closed. You will be required to reapply should you wish to continue with your registration.
As part of our mandate to public safety, APEGNB uses a detailed and thorough review process for all applications. This initial review process can take up to 6-12 months.
When your application is processed, you will receive an email with next steps. Once your file is complete, it will be sent to the Board of Admissions for review and approval.
CBA PROGRAM
Prior to being granted a licence, an APEGNB applicant must demonstrate their ability to practice engineering or geoscience.
The applicant must provide evidence that they possess, through experience, a satisfactory capability to practice at a professional level. APEGNB has adopted the Competency-Based Assessment to allow applicants to demonstrate their work experience. The Competency-Based Assessment (CBA) allows for a more transparent method of submission.
The CBA submission is done through the online portal.
Ensure that you have read the CBA guidelines before beginning your work experience submission to reduce the risk of being required to re-submit. If you have any issues using the system, contact registration@apegnb.com.
