Cool Links for Kids
Our Career Awareness outreach program, which connected K-12 educators with engineers and geoscientists to promote the professions, has been discontinued as of December 31, 2024, as it no longer fits within Engineers and Geoscientists BC's mandate as a regulator. For more information about this and other recent changes made to align our operations with the Professional Governance Act, please visit the Advocacy Body webpage.
Still listed here are some freely available educational resources to promote interest in the professions of engineering and geoscience.
