| Description | Industrial development continues to result in the expansion of the power engineer's responsibilities. Provincial legislation requires the certification of employees before they assume responsibilities in heating and power plants. There are five certificate levels: Fifth, Fourth, Third, Second, and First. Each involves qualifying time requirements and examinations administered by the Alberta Boilers Safety Association. The objective of this program is to prepare students for entrance into the power engineering field at the Fourth Class level, with Part A of the Third Class. This is done by providing the student with both theoretical and practical training.
Applicants should have good manual dexterity and good hand-eye coordination since they will be required to operate switches and controls while monitoring instruments. | | |
