So the application has now officially changed as I very stupidly found out. Should have opened up my application a few weeks ago as I had been assembling everything offline on my own so that I could copy and paste.
It is now on the Work Record Validator List(WRVL) + Competency Based Assessment Tool (CBAT) as of May 2nd
Which in a way helps me as I had a dick head boss who was not a fan and was not going to ever give me a reference and I also had another P.Eng who quit and lives in Europe saying fuck OnG/Engg lol.
But the new system requires that each job has a Validator (your P.Eng) and a Reference (they suggest HR). The WRVL has to be completely filled out first to move on, and even have to put in an overview of your position.
Once that is done then you move onto the CBAT component. You now have to fill out 22 different "skillsets" giving the overview, how you applied those skills etc etc, give yourself a score between 1-5 (fucking stupid) and then select a Validator for each one. You must use 3 Validators and yes 1 Validator can do a max of 20 skills leaving 1 and 1 for the remainder. They now allow generic e-mail addresses due to all the problems they were having (I can see this trust system fracturing quickly).
For each skill set your Validator will get an individual e-mail with a link sent to them (i.e. use them 20 times, they get 20 individual e-mails). Who then has to review your summary and give you there impression on a 1-5 scale.
I am really dreading how this process is going to go, my new company immediately put some pressure on me to have my app submitted by the end of the month saying they really want my P.Eng for future proposals. Something tells me this new system is a real treat and will take a long time. The 22 skillsets is pretty fucking overkill, but hey... what else is APEGA good for aside from raking fees and making life a pita for most.
