Ready to work on your next competency? I see A.3 Design still needs a narrative.
Your P.Eng portfolio,
already done.
EITs spend years scattering competencies across spreadsheets, Word docs, and email threads. squared² organizes the evidence from day one, so the moment you're ready to apply, so is your SAR.
3–5 years of scattered evidence.
Most EITs reach licensure deadline and realize their proof is in fragments across employers, projects, and tools. Reorganizing it for the regulator takes months.
One framework, one app.
All 34 Engineers Canada competencies, tracked automatically as you log work.
Log as you go.
Capture project evidence the moment it happens — voice, resume, or LinkedIn import.
Organizes — never fabricates.
Watson matches your real experience to competencies and drafts narrative scaffolds. You stay the author.
SAR-ready, audit-ready.
Generate a complete licensure package in PDF, Markdown, or HTML when you're ready to submit.

Most EITs juggle four separate tools: an NPPE study site, a spreadsheet for competencies, Word for narratives, and a CPD log somewhere else. squared² replaces all of them with one app that tracks the entire P.Eng journey.

NPPE prep sites refers to generic engineering-exam study tools, which cover question banks well but don't track competencies, draft narratives, or export portfolios.

See your time-savings
How much time does squared² save you?
Three sliders. Anchored to real EIT timelines. Numbers update instantly.
A typical EIT term in Canada is 3 to 5 years of supervised practice.
Includes journaling, organizing evidence, writing SAR drafts.
Each prior test reduces your remaining study load.
squared² saves you approximately 456 hours over your EIT term, equivalent to 9.4 focused work weeks. Includes an estimated 82 hours of NPPE prep through spaced repetition.
Conservative estimate. Most EITs we have spoken to find the real savings are higher once resume import + auto-mapping kick in.
Study smarter, not harder.
300+ flashcards with spaced repetition, timed practice exams, speed quizzes, and daily challenges — all aligned with the APEGA framework.
- Spaced repetition flashcards
- Timed practice exams with explanations

Tell me about a project where you applied technical knowledge to solve an engineering problem.
At Northbridge Consulting, I designed a retaining wall for the Riverside interchange...
Great. What specific technical standards or codes did you reference?
I referenced CSA S6 and the provincial supplemental specifications for the design...

A.1 Technical Knowledge — 92% confidence
From messy note to SAR draft.
Illustrative example, not a live chat. Watson organizes your real experience, it never fabricates it.
Situation-Action-Result draft
Situation: During commissioning of a 12.47 kV switchgear lineup at a municipal water treatment plant, protective-relay coordination had to be verified before energization.
Action: I reviewed the coordination study against the as-built settings, identified a mis-coordination between the feeder and main relays, and coordinated with the contractor to re-test and correct the settings.
Result: The lineup was energized safely with verified protection, avoiding a potential nuisance trip or equipment damage on startup.

The honest answers.
squared² was built by a Canadian engineer-in-training who was tired of tracking the path to P.Eng across scattered spreadsheets. It is the tool I needed, built honestly: it organizes your real experience, it never fabricates it.
