ASET Assessment Eligibility Criteria For C.Tech./C.E.T.

 

Technicians and engineering technologists from all over the world desire membership. As it has countless benefits. Having a positive ASET assessment and certification allows certified technicians (C.Tech.) and Certified Engineering Technologists (C.E.T.) to improve their credibility, network, and professional recognition.

A C.E.T. is an applied science, information of engineering technology professional who can assume responsibility. These professionals use independent judgment to do technical tasks and sort out problems in complicated technological areas with limited direct supervision.

A C.Tech. is an applied science, engineering, or information technology professional who does routine technical procedures with occasional direct supervision and can assume limited responsibility for any decision-making process.

For a positive ASET assessment to attain C.Tech. or C.E.T. membership, you have to fulfill the following criteria:

·      You have to be a graduate of a technical certificate or diploma program

·      Two years of technical work experience

·      Work or looking for work in Alberta or the Northwest Territories

 

To be kept in mind: If the candidate’s education is TAC-accredited, then they don’t need to complete an academic assessment for C.Tech. or the ASET Certification Exam for C.E.T. An applicant for C.Tech. may contact registration@aset.ab.ca before they apply to confirm program eligibility.

If working or seeking work outside the Alberta province or the Northwest Territories, the applicant needs to contact their provincial technology association to know about membership options.
