Certification
The Institute of Engineering Technology of Ontario, or IETO, is the section of OACETT responsible for certification. It includes a panel of professional members that evaluates applications for certification and registers engineering and applied science technicians and technologists who meet established Canadian standards in education and experience.
OACETT confers the post-nominal designations of C.Tech. (Certified Technician), C.E.T. (Certified Engineering Technologist), and A.Sc.T. (Applied Science Technologist). These symbols are legally protected for use only by certified members, in the same manner that the PEO protects the use of the P.Eng. (professional engineer) designation.
The designations conferred by OACETT are recognized across Canada by provincial member organizations of the CCTT.
MTO (Ministry of Transportation Ontario) Designations issued by OACETT include:
- RCJI - Road Construction Junior Inspector;
- RCSI - Road Construction Senior Inspector; and
- RCCA - Road Construction Contract Administrator.
