I would recommend you to visit the website http://www.gotoaims.com" rel="nofollow">LINK
This website will explain all the procedures, PEO's PPE exam details, as well as offers one to one consulting and preparation coaching for PPE exam, especially if you live in Kitchener/Waterloo area.
This is a link to your own website. I am not sure if advertising is allowed in this way on this forum.
Passing PEO's PPE exam is pretty straight forward - only hurdle is getting acquainted with legal language. For law paper, most of the case studies are repeated every year with changed names. You must be familiar with which concept to apply for what scenario, and use appropriate legal terms.
For ethics, they give you the PEO's code of ethics. You have to point out which code does the case study violate.
I believe that if you were capable of clearing your engineering exams, you should be able to clear the PPE. In addition to testing your knowledge of engineering law and ethics, the exam also tests your capability to express yourself in English.
If you have studied on your own in engineering (most of us have), PPE should not be an issue, however, if you need to be spoon fed and have money to spare, go ahead and spend money on coaching classes

I was pretty nervous about the PPE exam, but I passed and was well prepared. In my experience, you will have no problem with this test if you know exactly what to study for.
I paid for the training course called xxxxx. They've got 30 years of exams/answers and they tell you exactly what to focus on. They also buy/sell the new/old textbooks.
Highly recommend this service. If I was writing the test again, I would sign up for xxxxx, use their Ultimate Cram Course and spend less than 5 hours studying.

Hello Everyone..!!!!
I request all to share your ERC interview experience. I am basically looking for info on following aspects:
- Interview Duration
- No. of Experience summaries Covered
- Did interviewer ask questions on Work Experience Summary other than the ones or twos you prepared?
- Difficulty Level of interview - the questions were basic or in-depth detailed ones?
- Should I concentrate more on the equation / numbers or should I more concentrate on the overall engineering process / principle ?
I would appreciate your efforts if you could share your experience please.

I am to decide one Complimentary Studies subject - Engineering Economics or Engineering in Society Health and Safety. Can anyone please advise?
You would have completed both of these topics when you finished your course curriculum in your Engineering Degree. How well you fared in these subjects currently matters. In my books they are huge and your knowledge might be very limited. The reason being, there are very few publications available that are current and the materials that you can buy or available to you currently date back 4-5 years behind. THAT WON'T DO. They are expecting a very good response from you and needs to be as current as you can bring them upto it.
Unless you have vast experience and the current knowledge of the field, please do consult one of the PROFs in any Engineering Faculty in a UNIVERSITY near by and seek guidance from them. That will bring you upto date. Alternately pay for a coach and learn from him/her. It will be well worth the money you will spend, since all they are asking of you is ONE Subject matter out of the two. Which one is your best out of the two that you want to prove that you know. Learn it well. ACE IT.
Good Luck.
FH.
You will need all of the facts and figures of a Completed project if you are tackling the subject on Economics. One that you did work OR one you will be able to get to know more from some one.
If you are going to tackle Health and safety, then you will have to know more about all of the chemicals and energy products, pollution, containment and removal, avoidance and the costs. Involve disposals too. May also need to know more about WHMIS and antidotes and the manner in which all of these gets handled and the corresponding bodies and their readiness, location and their hierarchies and Access numbers too. (in Canada)
Learn them well.
There are coaches who do this for a fee.
