Why strong engineers still get sent back

Most Canadian engineering regulators now use Competency-Based Assessment (CBA) to evaluate your experience before licensing. Whichever framework your regulator uses, you are asked to demonstrate each competency with a clear, specific work example, and that is genuinely hard to do well, even when your engineering work has been excellent.

It is rarely about the quality of your experience. It is about how that experience reads on paper. The same few things trip up even careful applicants:

  • Examples that stay too high-level, so an assessor cannot see your personal contribution.
  • Work described in a way that could apply to anyone on the team.
  • Examples that do not quite line up with what the competency is asking for.

None of these are hard to fix once someone shows you where they are. A second set of eyes from an engineer who has been through the process spots them before you submit, so you put your best version forward the first time and dramatically reduce the risk of a resubmission, the extra fees it brings, and the months of added delay before you are licensed.

What you get

Clear, practical feedback you can act on right away, not a vague score. Here is exactly what comes back to you.

Competency-by-Competency Feedback

Every example you submit reviewed individually. You see exactly what to keep, what to rewrite, and why.

Tracked-Changes Word Doc

Send your draft as a Word document. You get it back with inline comments and tracked changes you can accept, reject, or revise.

A P.Eng.'s Substantive Read

We look at more than wording. A licensed P.Eng. judges whether each example genuinely demonstrates the competency, with the technical depth and structure assessors expect, and shows you where and how to strengthen it.

Indicator-Level Review

Feedback maps to the official indicators in your regulator's framework.

100% Human Review · No AI

Your report is read by a licensed Canadian P.Eng. who has been through the CBA process. No AI scoring, no automated grading. Every comment comes from a real engineer.

5-7 Business Day Turnaround

Once you send your draft, you have it back the following week. Submit on your timeline. There is no deadline to use your review.

Frequently asked questions

Which regulators is this for?

The review covers Competency-Based Assessment frameworks used by Canadian engineering regulators including APEGA (22-competency), EGBC, PEO, APEGS, and others using the Engineers Canada 34-competency model.

Is this human review or AI review?

100% human. Your CBA report is read end to end by a licensed Canadian P.Eng. Every comment, every suggested edit, every competency note comes from a real engineer who has been through the CBA process. We do not use AI scoring or automated grading.

Is there a deadline to submit my report after I pay?

No. Pay when you are ready to commit, and submit your draft on your own timeline. The 5-7 business day turnaround starts the day we receive your report, not the day you pay.

Do I need an easyNPPE account to buy this?

No. CBA Review is a standalone service. You pay through Stripe, email your report, and get your feedback. No signup, no app account required.

What format should my CBA report be in?

Microsoft Word (.docx). This lets us return your document with inline comments and tracked changes you can act on directly.

How many competencies are covered in one review?

All of them. One review covers your full report, whether you are submitting under the 22-competency APEGA framework or the 34-competency Engineers Canada framework.

Is it worth getting a CBA review?

Absolutely. How clearly your report reads is the single biggest thing in your control, and an experienced second read dramatically reduces the chance of revisions, the extra fees they bring, and the weeks or months of delay before you are licensed. You submit with confidence, knowing a licensed P.Eng. has already pressure-tested every competency example.

Do you guarantee my CBA will be accepted?

We cannot, and honestly, no one truthfully can. Acceptance depends on your own experience and on your regulator, and many of those factors are out of our hands. What we can promise is a thorough, honest read from a licensed P.Eng. that helps you present your experience as clearly and strongly as possible, delivered within 5-7 business days or your money back.

What is your refund policy?

If we do not deliver your feedback within 5-7 business days of receiving your draft, you get a full refund, simple as that. Since your regulator makes the final acceptance call independently, refunds are not tied to their decision, but our commitment to delivering thorough, on-time feedback is fully guaranteed.

Submit with confidence

Have your CBA report reviewed by a Canadian P.Eng. before it reaches your regulator. A clear, well-evidenced report dramatically lowers the risk of revisions, extra fees, and delays, so you can get licensed sooner.
