Document Summary
Engr 201 - lecture 2 - professional systems in canada. The professional system in canada is quite unique in the world because of: The formal nature of control over individual professionals. This formal control is created by making professional associations statutory bodies (requiring a permit). Each professional association derives its power to control individual professionals from this statutory standing. In order to practice most professions in canada, an individual has to become a member of the corresponding professional association. A person, who practices the profession without an explicit license, is considered to be practicing the profession illegally and could face legal action. Social contract model: such a model places more emphasis on member responsibilities rather tha(cid:374) rights.
