Engineers Geoscientists Manitoba is currently piloting the
Competency Based Assessment (CBA) process with a small cohort of interns. CBA is conducted to determine if an applicant has progressed to a professional level of competency in their field of work experience, by asking applicants to use situational actions to demonstrate their achievements of the required competencies. Assessors will review submissions as well as validator feedback to provide ratings for each competency
and then comment on the applicant's readiness for professional registration. We are looking for professional members from all disciplines to become assessors. Members in good standing in the following
disciplines are the most needed; civil, mechanical (particularly manufacturing and HVAC), electrical, computer, project management/construction management, and aerospace. For more information on this opportunity, please see the
call for volunteers.
The Awards Committee is responsible for receiving nominations and selecting candidates from among Association practitioners so that professionals are recognized for their excellence by the Association at the annual Awards Gala.

have a general working knowledge of the Association's award categories, and strong written communication skills. For more information on this opportunity, please see the
