Technical Training

When applying to a provincial engineering association to be a professional engineer, an individual may be asked to prove his qualifications and education by passing Technical Confirmatory Exams. GIC offers these courses to help students prepare for these exams and should feature a mock/final exam at the end. There is a wide variety of topics and exam titles to chose from, and GIC has arranged instructors for the most requested exams. If a request is made for an exam that we don’t have an instructor for, we can attempt to contract someone to develop the course and make it available to customers.
