Recommended Textbooks:

• Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics” by Bruce R. Munson, Donald F. Young, and Theodore H. Okiishi
• Mechanics of Materials” by Russell C. Hibbeler
The distance education program works as follows:
• Each course is 8 weeks in duration.
• You will receive a set of notes each week covering the course material via the internet. In addition, you will receive practice problems and assignments very similar to the associations’ past exams.
• A one-hour conference meeting session will be conducted by your instructor each week. The objective of this session is to assist in solving the assignments as well as answer student questions that should be sent to the instructor early enough prior to the meeting time. In addition, by being able to communicate with the instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in the same class and watch their questions answered as well.
• Each set of assignments must be completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed assignment will be marked and returned by your instructor.
• Upon completion of the assignments, you will be sent a final exam. It is recommended that you try to simulate the actual exam conditions (i.e., no aids and a time limit) when writing it. You will then submit this final exam for review and marking.
Please note that CMC Inc. offers technical exam preparation courses for the following association examinations: APEGGA. APEGBC, APEGM, APEGNB, PEGNL, APENS. NAPEG, PEO, APEPEI. OIQ, APEGS and APEY.
Also, note all of our courses provided by CMC Inc. are based on the Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (CCPE) Engineers Canada curriculum
