EPE Registration Requirements 

 


To write the EPE, you must be at least 18 years of age.

When you apply, you must provide acceptable documentation that both:

  • Verifies your identity (including name and picture), and
  • Demonstrates that you meet the requirements for age.

This documentation must be a copy of 1 or more pieces of government-issued photo identification that includes:

  1. Your name,
  2. Your date of birth,
  3. A photograph that shows your current likeness,
  4. Your signature.

Your identification should be valid—current and not expired—and in full colour. The identification you provide to the College should be the same identification you will provide to the test centre or proctor for verification on the day of the exam.

The following documents meet the above standards:

  • The “details” pages of a valid Canadian passport (your passport must be signed to be valid)
  • The “details” pages of a valid foreign passport (your passport must be signed to be valid)
  • Both sides of a form of valid Canadian government-issued photo identification bearing your current likeness, such as a driver’s licence or a non-driver's identification card
  • For Quebec residents only, as Quebec does not issue a non-driver's identification card, both sides of a valid provincial health card
  • Both sides of a valid Canadian Permanent Resident Card; or
  • Both sides of a valid Certificate of Indian Status issued by Indigenous Services Canada (ISC)

To verify your identity, the College requires your photo identification to be validated by a Guarantor or Referee. Please download, complete and submit the Certification of ID form as part of this process. Identification submitted without this form will not be accepted.

 

When you apply to take the RISIA EPE, the CBIE will let us know you have completed the ISIEP. You do not need to provide your transcript.

Note: If you completed your program in 2018 or before, you need to include your transcript or confirm that the College has it on file.
