RPT


registration for registered
professional technologists (rpt)

Have you proven yourself as a highly competent technologist? Are you ready to take full responsibility, under law, for your work?

The R.P.T. category of licensure could be for you. The R.P.T. is a professional license allowing you to practice engineering or geoscience within a clearly defined scope of practice. Registered Professional Technologists are permitted to independently practice engineering, geology or geophysics in Alberta within narrow, defined scopes of practice and to take responsibility for that work. This category of licensure recognizes that certain qualified individuals can be permitted to independently carry out certain specific functions normally within the definition of professional engineering, professional geology or professional geophysics without the supervision of a Professional Engineer, Professional Geologist or Professional Geophysicist.
