About BPEQ


The Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland (BPEQ) is responsible for regulating the vast and multi-faceted engineering profession across the state, through a fair and consistent set of standards, designed to uphold the highest engineering conduct.

BPEQ was established alongside the Professional Engineering Act (PE Act) — introduced in 1930 — and is also responsible for managing the Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) system.

Becoming a RPEQ is a formal recognition of qualification and competency — our engineers occupy positions of trust and integrity within the community, industry and across government. BPEQ is empowered to maintain professional confidence in the industry by holding individuals accountable and ensuring ethical standards of practice.
