Manuals & Guidelines
PEQAB’s Manuals will now be updated in January and September of each year. Each year, the current and previous year’s editions of the materials will be clearly indicated and available on the website for applicants’ reference.
Applicants may indicate at the time of submission to the Ministry whether they wish to be assessed using the current materials or the materials from the previous year. Applicants must prepare their entire submissions according to either the current or previous year’s materials, not both.
Legislatively mandated changes and changes directed by the Board to be effective immediately will be posted as such on the PEQAB website. Such changes will be effective at the time of posting and used in the assessment of applications.
