The Ontario
Public Service Internship Program for Internationally Trained Engineers
The OPS Internship
Program for Internationally Trained Engineers (ITEs) provides paid work
placements of 12 to 15 months in duration. The internship experience is
designed to give the relevant Canadian work experience required for licensing
by Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO), the licensing body for engineers in
Ontario, so interns can meet licence requirements and join Ontario's labour
market.
All 2013 positions
will be available on the website. The March 2013 posting is now closed. An
additional posting may take place in the spring of 2013. Please visit this
website in order to view Internship Assignments.
