Signatures & Seals

Before 2011, Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba members had to authenticate their professional documents using the traditional signature and manual seal.

The Association still issues manual seals to all members once they register, however members may now digitally authenticate electronic documents. Use of the digital signature allows members to create, sign and issue that file as an original.

Notarius - Trusted Partner

Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba works with Notarius to manage digital signatures. The Association verifies new applications, and has the authority to revoke digital signatures, whereas Notarius processes applications, renewals, and maintains the verification system.

Advantages of Digital Signatures

Document versions are preserved after each signing
Documents can be encrypted to restrict access to their contents
There may be no need to print and store physical versions of electronic documents
