A Message from the Program

The Power Engineering program is designed for students without any previous experience in the field. Students attend face-to-face classes to obtain their Holland College Power Engineer certificate and then must successfully pass the PEI Provincial Exam to become a licensed power engineer. Students enrolled in the 4th Class Power Engineering program will have access to a functioning power lab and a thermal generating plant simulator, both of which are provided on-site, offering you the opportunity to troubleshoot and resolve issues with the types of equipment that you’ll encounter when you start your career.
