pr esIden t’s message
President’s MessageElizabeth McDonald, C.E.T.
One of the most gratifying parts of serving as President
is being able to meet with members and share in their
successes. I feel extremely fortunate to be President at the time when the first
P.Tech.(Eng.) candidates have been approved. To mark this historic occasion, we hosted
two events, one in Calgary and one in Edmonton, to present
the first group of P.Tech.s with their certificates. While this
achievement is impressive and well-deserved, the
P.Tech.(Eng.) is much more than a designation, it’s one
representation of a new era for technologists in Alberta.
This new era began in 2009 when ASET achieved self-regulatory status. This was ground-breaking, as Alberta was the first in Canada to achieve this status. Correspondingly, Alberta is also the first in the country, and possibly the first in the world, to offer an advanced designation which allows qualified members to practice engineering inde-pendently, within existing codes, stan-dards and established principles.
The journey to get to this point in our history has taken years and involved the efforts of many. I think this team-work was evident at the P.Tech.(Eng.) events with representatives from gov-ernment, industry, the joint board, and from our engineering colleagues in at-tendance to share in this celebration. I was also impressed with the number
of Past Presidents who attended to show their support and to share their thoughts on reaching this milestone. Without their dedication and tireless efforts, ASET would not be in this en-viable position today.
I’m excited about how this new des-ignation will open new opportunities and strengthen ASET’s position within the Alberta economy. The first group of P.Tech.s. represent a wide range of disciplines, demographics and back-grounds and their impact will be no-ticed. More detail about each of the new P.Tech.s can be found on pages 13–14 in this issue of the magazine.
The first 26 P.Tech.s are only just the beginning. Currently, there are still approximately 190 files in the queue for assessment. Each month, the joint board will continue to meet to process these files. New P.Tech.s will receive an invitation to be presented their cer-tificates at upcoming open houses and new member induction ceremonies. Dates of the upcoming open houses in each Chapter are also found in this is-sue of Technology Alberta and on the ASET web site. As well as welcoming new members, the open house events provide an opportunity for the Presi-dent to visit members across the prov-ince, provide updates on ASET activi-ties, and answer member questions. All members are invited and I look for-ward to seeing you there!
While the presence of the P.Tech.(Eng.) in the workplace will increase the level of responsibility for these members, it will also increase opportunity and recognition for all members, including C.E.T.s and C.Tech.s. ASET’s profile will increase and employers will be-come more aware of the full capability
of our members and the responsibili-ties entrusted to us through legislation. One of our upcoming priorities will be to increase communication with em-ployers to promote ASET membership and to remind them of the changes as-sociated with legislation and how they can provide benefit.
As well as working with employers, we strive to keep government informed of our progress and aware of issues im-portant to our members. In August we met with Thomas Lukaszuk, Minister of Employment and Immigration to discuss, among other things, recogni-tion of our members to practise in areas where they are qualified under exist-ing codes and standards. I’m pleased to report that progress is being made on this front. We’ll keep you posted on any updates through the web, through the TechLINK enewsletter and through Technology Alberta magazine. T

Growing our numbers, our rights, and our influenceBarry Cavanaugh
In the world of professional asso-ciations, our 17,000 members put us among the largest in the province. We represent — and regulate — a sig-nificant number of Albertans, in a wide range of disciplines and occupa-tions. Our ranks include not only the traditional engineering disciplines, but geomatics experts, architectural technologists, computer information specialists, geosciences technologists, nanotechnologists, biomedical tech-nologists, and a range of people in the applied sciences... biology, chemistry, environmental and many others. Our membership spans the widest possible range of industries and employers in Alberta. Our members are essential players in oil and gas, construction, electrical and electronics, water and power, environmental remediation, municipal engineering, you name it.
Such a significant body of profession-als deserves to be heard on issues of importance to their professions and to all Albertans. Our perspective, drawn from such a wide cross-section of con-tributing Albertans, experts in so many sectors of the Alberta life and economy, should be expressed and should be taken into account. Technicians and technologists have helped in a truly significant way to build this province and this economy to what it is, and are important to its future.
As we continue to grow, we remain a voluntary organization, and we attract and certify only the best among all those who may claim the titles of tech-nician or technologist. We can honest-ly say that our members are known to be the best, because in addition to their education, they have certified special experience, and their knowledge is
vetted by senior members of the pro-fession. An ASET designation, to hun-dreds of employers and to the public, means that this is a professional who has been tested by his or her peers and found to be highly qualified. It means, with our emphasis on continuing pro-fessional development and profession-al responsibility, that our members will be current in knowledge, and will be directly accountable for their work. No other “technicians” or “technologists” can make such claims. It is a source of pride.
Pride in the profession, excellence in all they do, responsibility, knowledge — these are attributes of the ASET member admired by all and aspired to by many, attributes sought out and rewarded by employers (our surveys make plain that the designations make a really significant difference in earn-ings).
We would encourage you to take our message to your colleagues in the workplace. Ask them to join us. Re-mind them that we judge them based on their competence, and experience, as well as their academic qualification. They can become part of a growing, in-fluential, respected professional body, which values all they have learned, ac-complished, and established. They can aspire to be one of the very best. And they can have the professional rights which accrue only to our certified members.
ASET will continue to express the per-spective of its members effectively, to governments at the federal, provincial and municipal levels, and to major em-ployers and industry sectors across the province and across the nation. And it will be heard. We believe that part of our responsibility as a profession is that we contribute to the national and provincial good in that way. What we know, what we have learned and will learn, is needed to inform economic and industrial policy and to contribute
to the building of a strong and support-ive province for the future.
We will encourage government and employers to respect that experience, that knowledge, that expertise, by re-specting our soon-to-be developed definition of technologist practice, and we encourage you to step up and to carry the message to your employer, your client, your customer, your MLA. Our growing membership’s voice will be heard. The voices of thousands of highly knowledgeable and essential people who are vital to our economy and to our life as a society.
We will identify that definition through dialogue with our experienced mem-bers and leaders, and with experts from industry and academe, and bring it out to the membership for discussion and refinement... and we will, when it is finalized, live with it as the anima-tor and guide to that independent work that ASET-certified technicians and technologists can legitimately per-form. We believe that employers, and the public, will respect that definition, because they see it lived out currently, every day. We hope that one day, in the face of its wide adoption voluntarily, government will see fit to incorpo-rate it in our legislation and thereby ascribe to the profession the respect it deserves. It appears we still have to earn it, still have to establish it... and we will. T

hIstorIc mIlestoneIndependent Practice becomes a Reality in Alberta
Twenty-six ASET members have been granted P.Tech. status, achieving a milestone for themselves and marking another milestone in the evolution of the 48-year old association. Changes to legislation that came into effect in 2009 paved the way for ASET to become the first self-regulating technologists’ association in Canada — and the first to grant qualified members the right to practice engineering independently, within existing codes and standards.
ASET’s focus for the past two years has been to work with APEGGA, as members of a discussion team and eventual Joint Board of Examiners, to interpret the legislation and agree on processes to grant the P.Tech. designation.
Celebrations were held in Calgary on August 23 and in Edmonton on August 25 to present the first group of 26 P.Tech. recipients with their certificates. Representatives from the original discussion team, ASET-APEGGA Joint Board of Examiners, Past Presidents, Council and government were present to offer congratulations and witness this historic event. Thanks were given to ASET members from years past who laid the foundation and to whom independent practice was only a dream.
the first group of Calgary-area technologists to attain the new ASet designation gathered August 23. Pictured, l-r, are Past President Scott turner, R.e.t.; Past President Lois Sterner, R.e.t.; Past President Dave Merralls, R.e.t., P.L.(eng.); Steve Banack, P.tech.(eng.); Denis tetreau, P.tech.(eng.); Adam Cooper, P.tech.(eng.); Steven Fahey, P.tech.(eng.); Jack Green, P.tech.(eng.); Brad tiedemann, P.tech.(eng.); Doug Wallace, P.tech.(eng.); Daniel Henry, P.tech.(eng.); Daniel Jungwirth, P.tech.(eng.); Russell Watts, P.tech.(eng.).
Independent practice was only a dream for the founding mem-bers of ASet. Pictured above is a group of ASet members and advisors, gathered around the meeting table in 1963: Gord Hulbert, C.e.t., advisor Wally Smith, Vern Monson, C.e.t., advisor Al Gorrel, ASet’s first president ernie Carter, C.e.t., and ASet’s first registrar Ivan Finlay, P.eng.

What is P.Tech.(Eng.)?The Professional Technologist (Engineering) credential is designed for members who have reached a senior level within their field. The P.Tech.(Eng.) especially will be of interest to members who are working as consultants or running their own business. In addition, senior members within larger organizations may also be interested in ex-ploring the P.Tech.(Eng.) as an option to further their right to practice and expand career options.
What is the advantage of P.Tech.(Eng.)?The main advantage of the designation is the right to prac-tice engineering independently within existing codes and standards. With this right, members will be able to sign off and stamp their own work.
What are the requirements to apply for the designation?
Must be a C.E.T. (or R.E.T.) with ASET, but can be a �recent C.E.T.Minimum of six years of engineering team experi- �ence prior to becoming a P.Tech.(Eng). Experience gained out of province or abroad can be considered; a minimum of one year must have been within Canada. Post-graduation advanced technical studies may be considered as experience.Experience gained with a high level of implication �for public safety, environmental impact, reputation of the organization, and monetary impact will be given extra weighting.Experience must include a high degree of under- �standing and application of engineering and/or scientific principles.Manages/supervises the work of a team of profes- �sionals involved in the application of engineering and/or scientific principles.Duties may include some of the following: project �management, design and/or approval/evaluation of designs, problem solving and analysis, technical leadership, development of prototypes.Must demonstrate knowledge of the act, codes, and �regulations relevant to their discipline of practice.Current R.E.T.s must demonstrate (by completing �the application and providing current references) that their current level of practice is at the same (or higher) level as when they were registered as an R.E.T.. They will then be allowed to write the P.Tech.(Eng.) professional practice examination.
How can members apply?For a P.Tech.(Eng.) application form, please contact the ASET office or visit the web site, www.aset.ab.ca.
Will this designation affect liability for the member?In some cases, yes, but only within the area defined by the scope of practise. In these cases, additional professional liability and/or commercial general liability insurance may be required. We would recommend that members also discuss their situation with legal counsel and an insurance provider. ASET has partnerships with Alternative Risk Services and with Unigroup to offer insurance options specifically designed for members. More information about liability and insurance can be found in the April/May 2010 issue of Technology Alberta available for reference in the publication archive area of ww.aset.ab.ca. More details about insurance providers can be found at http://www.aset.ab.ca/pages/Membership/default.aspx and in the members’ area on the ASET web site.
About P.Tech.(Eng.)
“I work in an engineering atmosphere…and I wanted to attain the highest level for myself. I think it shows motivation to my employer, it shows ambition and profes-sionalism.”
— Maureen evers-Dakers, P.tech.(eng.)
“I had a personal motivation for getting a P.tech.(eng.) designation. I am motivated by professional accomplish-ments and this was the next step for me after C.e.t. I had considered on applying for the R.e.t., then held off until I could go for the P.tech.(eng.).”
— Jennifer Bolier, P.tech.(eng.)
“I would encourage others to get their P.tech.(eng.). I work with engineers and technologists and now I can work independently and authenticate my work. Now we won’t have to send my work off elsewhere to be authenticated so we will save time and money on projects. My employer is excited that the P.tech.(eng.) is now a reality.”
— Mohamed Gaber, P.tech.(eng.)
“I am a partner in my business. With my field, the higher the designation, the better.”
— Paul Nowicki, P.tech.(eng.)
“I am personally more marketable as a contractor.”
— Daniel Henry, P.tech.(eng.)

APEGGA and ASET members,
On behalf of the Government of Alberta, I wish to extend sincere congratulations to APEGGA and ASET on the certification of the first-ever Professional Technologists by your organizations’ Joint Board of Examiners.
This important occasion represents the culmination of a long journey towards professional recognition of individuals who are key members of the engineering team. It follows decades of effort by many individuals from both organizations. These dedicated representatives have achieved what many thought might be impossible; however, their perseverance and commitment to a common goal have led to this ground-breaking day. I applaud your efforts and the devotion you have shown to your colleagues and to the advancement of your professions.
Technicians, technologists, engineers and geoscientists work together successfully every day to help shape and grow Alberta. They have been instrumental in making this province a world leader in many technical fields and are a driving force in our economy. The creation of the Professional Technologist designation, and now the certification of the first group of these individuals, is yet another example of your members, and your associations, working together effectively.
The Professional Technologist (P.Tech.) designation, and the process that has been established to issue it, is a significant achievement for Alberta’s technical community. Your organizations can take pride in the P. Tech. designation and in the new level of organizational co-operation that it represents.
To the first Professional Technologists in Alberta, I offer my congratulations and my best wishes for an exciting new chapter in your careers.
Thomas A. Lukaszuk Minister of Employment and Immigration MLA, Edmonton – Castle Downs

Alberta, A Good Immigration Destination
Yu Shin Zhangaset student member
In 2007, after my application of immi-gration to Canada was approved, I be-gan to think about which city I should choose to start my new life. Vancouver was the first city which came to my mind, because I had known it is a very beautiful city and it is one of the best places for people to live in the world; also, we have some friends living there, so we first landed at Vancouver in 2008. However, a year later, when we were preparing for the second land-ing, we thought about our future life carefully. For the first few years, we needed to improve our English fluency and further my education for a future job. I searched on the Internet, and I analyzed a lot of information about this. Then I found Alberta. There are several factors that attracted me to this province.
Alberta’s economy is developing quick-ly and its unemployment rate is very low. Alberta is the third largest proven crude oil reserve in the world. As we all know, oil energy plays a significant role in economic development. Because of this, Alberta has the highest economic growth in Canada and many jobs are created. Even though my major, instru-mentation, is not directly related to the oil industry since it is widely used in all kinds of fields, I think it will be not too difficult for me to find a job. At the time we were making our decisions, Alber-ta’s unemployment rate was less than
four per cent. That means there were more job opportunities compared to other provinces. By the way, according to Statistics Canada in January 2011, Alberta’s employment rate is the high-est in Canada.
Alberta’s income support policies pro-vide financial benefits for people who are not able to meet their basic needs. The provincially-funded ESL program is one of income support provided by Alberta Works. Only a few provinces in Canada have this policy. It is very help-ful for those immigrants to whom Eng-lish is their second language and they need to take ESL classes. I benefited a great deal by this program. I spent eight months taking ESL classes to improve my English, during that time the fund-ing from Alberta Works paid my tuition and partial living expenses. And then I could pass the English Assessment test of NAIT, so I got permission to take the Instrumentation Program.
Last, in Edmonton there is a famous Chinese person whom I got to know on the EdmontonChina.ca website. He is very enthusiastic to help newcomers. He offers accommodation for newcom-ers for free. He can give them good ad-vice and help them to deal with some formalities. He also wrote a lot of arti-cles about how to adapt to a new life in Edmonton and posted on the website for people to download. He wants to
tell everyone that Edmonton is a “hot” city for immigrants in Canada. All of this attracted me to come to Edmon-ton. There are quite a number of Chi-nese immigrants who were affected by him, and I was one of them.
Additionally, there is a project named Canadian Immigration Integration Project (CIIP) in China. Its purpose is to help immigrants to get ready for their immigration life when they are still in their own country. We attended this project and the counsellor con-firmed my decision.
Up to now, I have been living in Ed-monton for almost two years; honestly, I like this city. People are friendly and I am on my way to obtain a better life.
There is only one thing that bothered me when I made my decision, the winter weather... It is very cold and long. I don’t like it, but I can adapt to it, I think! T

CPD
Deadline is December 31, 2011
ASet’s Continuing Professional Development (CPD) pro-gram is in high gear. Members are engaged and interested in “telling us what they are doing.”
the CPD program is mandatory under the eGGP Act and Regulations, and is supported by the ASet Code of ethics, under which ASet members are responsible for undertaking ongoing professional development to maintain their profi-ciency and competence.
to assist members in tracking their professional develop-ment ASet has provided an easy, user friendly web-based application.
the CPD program is designed to be very flexible. Any job-related learning activities that you are currently engaged with will qualify as CPD. the requirement is one activity in any two of the CPD categories.
Many activities can fulfill more than one of the requirements.
For example, many of our members have asked how the seminars they attend can qualify for CPD. Attending a semi-nar can qualify as an Informal or Formal activity PLUS it can also lead to fulfilling the Peer and Professional Interaction and Contribution to the Profession Requirement.
As a result of attending a seminar, did you:
Spend 4 hours or more learning the 1. subject matter?(Formal CPD)
Have follow up that required self-study 2. after the seminar? (Informal CPD)
Learn a technical application that you 3. demonstrated to colleagues? (Peer and Professional Interaction CPD)
take what you learned from the seminar 4. and volunteer your time to share your knowledge? (Contribution to the Profession CPD)
the CPD program is flexible enough that the activities your employer may require you to do can be submitted as your ASet CPD. there is no expectation that members or their employer will incur any additional cost or that the member will require any additional time away from work.
ASet has provided extensive information on the web site at www.aset.ab.ca to assist members in understanding the CPD requirements and the tools to follow through. As we continue, we encourage members to provide us with feedback. this way we can continue to improve the program to better serve you, the member. Please do not hesitate to contact Linda Moore, Competency Coordinator, at [email protected].
CPD is a mandatory requirement of certification.

project developmentThe impetus for the GIS project emerged out of the realiza-tion that urban members would benefit from GIS technology, but most communities within the region would not be able to afford a system on their own. ORRSC staff contacted all member and several non-member municipalities in south-ern Alberta in order to gauge interest and gained enough initial support to go ahead. The project received a Municipal Affairs’ 2000 Intermunicipal Sponsorship Grant. The entire program was approved as a multi-year pilot project in Oc-tober of 2002 and was divided into three one-year phases: land use, infrastructure and orthophotography (distortion-corrected aerial photography that can be used to accurately measure distance, for example).
The project has grown from serving a population of 36,219 in 18 municipalities to presently serving 84,287 in 37 munici-palities. The GIS project is overseen by an advisory commit-tee that meets a minimum of once annually. New initiatives, or GIS news in general, is conveyed to the membership via a GIS newsletter.
ORRSC technologists work with local land survey company technologists, engineers and survey technologists, as well as municipal employees who may not have a technical back-ground.
Intermunicipal cooperation in southern alberta: The Oldman River Region Urban GIS Project
Submitted bySteven Ellert, C.E.T.Mladen Kristic, C.E.T.
Technologists play a key role in helping small communities in Southern Alberta benefit from a cooperative Geographic Information System (GIS) that allows the municipalities to make better, and quicker decisions.
A GIS is the integration of geographical, or spatial, data that allows for easy understanding and access. A GIS can greatly simplify and streamline geographical information at say, a town office, where otherwise required information can be scattered in a variety of digital files, index cards, rolled up paper or maps on the wall. Specialized software, such as Au-todesk MapGuide, allows end users to view on their desk-top via the internet spatial data such as cadastral, title and infrastructure mapping as well as a multitude of database information such as infrastructure attributes, parcel owner-ship, tax roll data and land use districts. GIS allows users to synthesize the data and note trends or relationships.
The Oldman River Region Urban GIS Project is an outstand-ing example of intermunicipal cooperation which has pro-duced a valuable information resource for all those involved. The project is a partnership between the Oldman River Re-gional Services Commission (ORRSC), a municipal coop-erative planning organization, and 37 urban municipalities located in southern Alberta. Through intermunicipal coop-eration, these partners have worked together over the past eight years to create a centralized regional GIS.
The project was designed to make it economically feasible for small communities to have access to GIS technology by sharing resources and expertise. GIS infrastructure and staff are centralized at the ORRSC office in Lethbridge and the Internet is used as a tool to deliver the information to individual municipalities in a password protected environ-ment. The municipal partners and planning staff at ORRSC benefit from immediate access to information for decision-making, land use planning and infrastructure management. The partners of the Oldman River Region Urban GIS Project were proud to receive an Honorable Mention for Partnership at the 2004 Minister’s Awards for Municipal Excellence!

phase III – 2005New aerial photography was flown and a color orthopho-� to of each municipality was integrated into the GIS
The total number of municipal partners rose to 25 when � the Villages of Arrowwood and Milo and the Towns of Granum and High River joined the project
benefits of the urban gIs projectThe development of quality partnerships has been essential to the successful implementation of the Oldman River Re-gion Urban GIS Project. This project has reduced duplication of data between different organizations and has made access to GIS economically feasible for the partnering municipali-ties. Data is stored on a central server located in Lethbridge and each community is able to access the GIS software and information via the Internet. ORRSC has assumed the role of service provider by managing the system and providing GIS expertise to the partnering municipalities. ORRSC staff has been actively involved in training municipal staff to use the GIS so that they are able to access information with ease. Partnering municipalities have begun to experience improved local management and operational efficiencies be-cause of Internet access to accurate and up-to-date informa-tion. Other benefits of the urban GIS project include:
partnershipsCost savings though shared infrastructure and expertise � in a central location
Improved intermunicipal cooperation in the preparation � of intermunicipal development plans, water quality stud-ies and joint disaster plans
Increased potential for future partnerships between � municipalities
municipal managementOrganized information that is updated, maintained and � available on the Internet
Access to an excellent planning tool that is useful in the � preparation of reports and presentations for council meetings and public hearings
Increased professional development as municipal staff � explore the possibilities of the system
Infrastructure managementIncreased understanding of infrastructure deficiencies�
Reduced duplication of work�
Useful for providing notice to residents with regards to � street and alley closures
Assists in developing maintenance agreements with � private sector developers
future directionsIn retrospect, the Oldman River Region Urban GIS Project has met and exceeded the expectations of the project team. Partnering municipalities have continually increased their use of the system and several municipalities have joined the project since its inception. Late in 2005, the partnering mu-nicipalities received another grant from Municipal Affairs’ Sponsorship Program and these funds were used to develop four additional layers for the GIS project in 2006. An assess-ment layer, cemetery layer and registered plan layer have been added to the system.

ENMAX Centre Tour
on June 22, 2011 the Lethbridge Chapter of ASet con-ducted a noon hour tour of the “enmax Center Renovation Project” the $33 Million project is a unique redevelopment of an existing ice arena which is home to the Lethbridge Hurri-canes of the WHL. What makes the project unique is the way the project was designed and tendered to take advantage of available funding. In order to secure the financing available the project needed to be fast tracked through design so that the budget could be allocated. once the funding was secured the project was tendered as several smaller projects to try to get the best pricing for all of the components. one of the biggest challenges for the City was that the facility had to re-main 100% available to the WHL team and to other revenue generating functions during the hockey season.
ASet members were led through the tour by Reg Areshenko, C.e.t., Facilities Project Manager for the City of Lethbridge, pictured here in the center.
