NPPE Guided, $297 CAD

The NPPE prep course that fits around a full-time job

Bite-size lessons on all 52 topics, 580 questions on repeat, four full timed mock exams and a road to exam day, plus two 30-minute sessions with a P.Eng. and your money back if you finish it all and don't pass. $297 CAD, paid once.

A Guided lesson on your lunch break

Studying for the NPPE on your lunch break is the plan, not a compromise. Every lesson is built for a phone and a short break: watch a short video, get the key idea, then answer it the way the exam asks. Points and streaks keep you coming back. There are no classes and no one else's schedule.

Guided also comes with two 30-minute, one-on-one sessions with a P.Eng., on any NPPE topic you choose, booked from your dashboard while your plan is active. And it includes the Safety Net: Complete everything before your sitting. Don't pass? Get your money back and 3 more months to prepare again. What counts as everything is in the questions below.

Guided costs $297 CAD: pay now, or in 4 payments of $74.25* with Klarna.

What's in Guided

Everything in Practice Questions and Safety Net, on a road that starts with the lessons, plus two sessions with a P.Eng.

  • Bite-size lessons on all 52 topics

    What it is
    A lesson for every topic in the 6 domains of the NPPE blueprint.
    How it works
    Each lesson is a short video, then the key idea in a few lines, then an exam-style question on it straight away.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    You learn a rule and use it in the same sitting, so the practice questions test what you have seen rather than guesses.
  • 580-question bank, on repeat

    What it is
    Exam-style multiple choice questions on every topic, every option explained.
    How it works
    A miss comes back 3 questions later in the session, then on later days, until you answer it right twice in a row.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    The NPPE is closed book. Answering from memory, again and again, is what makes a rule usable in a little over 80 seconds.
  • Four full timed mock exams

    What it is
    Full-length exams in the NPPE's format, across the six blueprint sections.
    How it works
    Each runs on the 2.5-hour timer and ends with a score by topic and every question explained. Your plan places two in the middle weeks and two near the end.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    Several rehearsals show a trend rather than one score, and whether your pace holds for the whole exam.
  • The readiness report

    What it is
    Your strengths and gaps by domain and by topic.
    How it works
    Coverage and accuracy together, updated as you study, so one good session never reads as ready.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    It tells you where the next hour should go, and which domains still need work before you walk in.
  • Flashcards

    What it is
    1,000+ cards for the definitions and rules you must recall cold.
    How it works
    Swipe each to Mastered or Review; review mode brings back the ones you marked.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    Closed book means recall. A few minutes of cards keeps earlier weeks from fading.
  • Mind map

    What it is
    Every NPPE topic in one picture, from contract law to the discipline process.
    How it works
    Six pillars branch into linked topics, so you can see how the pieces connect.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    In the final week it is the fastest way to check that nothing has been left out.
  • A road to exam day that starts with the lessons

    What it is
    A plan counted back from your sitting in four stages: learn the topics, practise and review, mock exams, final week.
    How it works
    Each day shows one task. With no date set, the road is eight weeks; a closer sitting compresses it.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    Steady daily study is easier to keep beside a job than weekend cramming, and practice spread over weeks holds better.
  • XP, streaks and badges

    What it is
    Points for every answer, a daily streak and 17 achievements.
    How it works
    Right answers earn more XP than wrong ones, and finishing a session on consecutive days grows your streak.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    The hard part of NPPE prep is showing up for weeks. A game layer makes the daily session easier to keep.
  • Two sessions with a P.Eng.

    What it is
    Two 30-minute, one-on-one sessions with a P.Eng., on any NPPE topic you choose.
    How it works
    Once your plan is active, book them from your dashboard or your profile, together or on different days.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    Some topics are easier to talk through than to read: a contract clause, a discipline case, a conflict of interest. One conversation can settle the one that keeps tripping you up.
  • The Safety Net money-back promise

    What it is
    Complete everything before your sitting. Don't pass? Get your money back and 3 more months to prepare again.
    How it works
    Email your official result within 30 days of the date on it. The full terms are in the questions below.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    A rewrite already costs a second exam fee; it should not cost a second course. It is a promise about your money and your access, not about your result.
  • Every answer explained

    What it is
    An explanation for every option, the right one and each wrong one.
    How it works
    In lessons and practice you see it as you answer; in a mock, when you submit.
    Why it matters for the NPPE
    NPPE questions are scenarios. Knowing why a tempting option is wrong carries over to questions you have never seen.

What a Guided lesson looks like

One topic at a time, in three steps, sized for a phone and a short break.

  1. 1

    Watch a short video

    The topic explained in plain words, with the situation it comes up in: a seal on a drawing, a conflict of interest, a contract term.

  2. 2

    Get the key idea

    The rule in a few lines: what it says, when it applies, and the trap the exam likes to set around it.

  3. 3

    Answer it the way the exam asks

    An exam-style question on that idea, straight away, with every option explained. Miss it and it comes back in your practice until you get it right twice in a row.

Ethics: Why ethics matter. With sound and captions, as it plays in the app.

Watch a real lesson

This is the first Ethics lesson, as it opens in the app. Every one of the 52 topics starts the same way: a short video, then the key idea, then a question in the exam's style.

The topic is part of the trial, so you can watch it again there, and try its questions, before you pay.

Your road to exam day

Tell NPPE Pro which sitting you are writing and it counts back from that date. The weeks are split into four stages, and each day shows one task, with a pace check that tells you whether you are ahead, on track or behind.

With no sitting set, the default road is eight weeks of short daily sessions. If your sitting is closer, each stage gets fewer days rather than being skipped.

  • Learn the topics: a lesson in every topic, so practice tests what you have seen
  • Practise and review: clear your missed questions, then mock exams 1 and 2
  • Mock exams: mocks 3 and 4 under exam conditions
  • Final week: the mind map, then your weakest topics one more time
The NPPE Pro study plan: four stages counted back from the exam date.

A week with Guided

A typical week in the learn and practise stages. The app shows the day's task, so you never have to plan it yourself.

  1. 1

    Weekdays: one session a day

    A lesson on one topic, then practice questions on it, in one short session. A commute or a lunch break is enough.

  2. 2

    Start each session with your reviews

    Questions you missed earlier come first, so last week's topics stay fresh while you learn this week's.

  3. 3

    A few minutes of flashcards

    Two or three times a week, swipe through the cards for the definitions and rules you keep missing.

  4. 4

    Weekend: catch up or go weakest first

    Behind by a day? Catch up. On track? A short set from your weakest topics moves your readiness most.

  5. 5

    Mock weeks: block out 2.5 hours

    When your road reaches a mock exam, sit it in one block, closed book, then read the report the same day.

Who Guided is for

  • You are starting from scratch

    You know little about the NPPE yet, and want the topics taught before you are tested on them.

  • You study around a full-time job

    Short daily sessions on a phone, and a plan that fits the weeks you have. See studying while working.

  • Canadian law and ethics are new to you

    Lessons build the Canadian context from the ground up. See the NPPE for internationally trained graduates.

  • You want a person to ask

    Two 30-minute sessions with a P.Eng., on the topics you choose, when you choose.

Who it is not for

If you have already studied and only need to test yourself and close the gaps, Practice Questions costs less: the same question bank on repeat, flashcards, one full mock exam and the readiness report. If you have studied some and don't need the session with a P.Eng., Safety Net has the same lessons and mocks for $197 CAD, on a road that starts from questions.

If you learn best in live classes with an instructor, Guided is not that. It is self-paced, with no classes: the two sessions with a P.Eng. are not a course of tutoring. A classroom course may suit you better, and you can still use NPPE Pro alongside it for questions and mock exams.

Guided, Safety Net or Practice Questions?

All three include the whole question bank on repeat, flashcards and the readiness report. The difference is whether you also need to learn the material, and whether you want sessions with a P.Eng.

What a good online NPPE course includes

Use this list to judge any course, ours included.

  • Coverage mapped to the blueprint

    All six sections, with the most material on Professional Practice and Law for Professional Practice, the two largest.

  • Short lessons you can finish

    Lessons sized to a single sitting, so studying every day is realistic beside a job.

  • Every option explained

    Not just the right answer, but why each wrong option is wrong. That is where much of the learning happens.

  • Spaced review of your mistakes

    Questions you miss should come back on later days until you get them right, not vanish after one attempt.

  • Full-length timed mock exams

    At least two, on the 2.5-hour timer, each with a report by topic so you know what to fix.

  • A plan to your sitting

    Something that counts back from your exam date and tells you what each week, ideally each day, is for.

  • No claims about the real questions

    The NPPE's questions are confidential, so no course can show you the real ones. Be cautious of any course that claims or implies otherwise.

  • A way to try it first

    Enough access to see the lessons and questions for yourself before you pay.

Questions people ask

More answers in the NPPE FAQ.

What is in a Guided lesson?

Each lesson covers one of the 52 topics in three steps: a short video, the key idea in a few lines, then an exam-style question on it straight away. Lessons are sized for a phone and a short break, and any question you miss comes back in your practice until you get it right twice in a row.

How long does the NPPE Pro course take?

As long as the weeks to your sitting. NPPE Pro counts back from your exam date, so the course fits the time you have. With no date set, it lays out a default plan of eight weeks, with a daily goal of about 15 minutes that you can change. If your sitting is close, each stage gets fewer days.

Does Guided include live classes or a tutor?

No live classes. Guided is self-paced: lessons, practice questions with every option explained, flashcards, mock exams and a daily plan, plus two 30-minute, one-on-one sessions with a P.Eng. on any NPPE topic you choose. If you want regular live teaching, a classroom course may suit you better, and NPPE Pro can still be your practice and mock exam tool.

What is the difference between Guided, Safety Net and Practice Questions?

Guided ($297 CAD) teaches the material and tests it: lessons on all 52 topics on a road that starts with them, the 580-question bank, four mock exams, the report, flashcards, the mind map and two sessions with a P.Eng. Safety Net ($197 CAD) has the same study tools without the sessions, on a road that starts from questions. Both come with the money-back promise. Practice Questions ($97 CAD) is the bank, flashcards, one mock exam and the report, with no lessons.

Do I need a course to pass the NPPE?

No. A prep course is optional: what your regulator requires is a pass on the exam itself, and you can prepare from the suggested books with your own practice. EGBC applicants also complete EGBC's own online seminar, which is separate from any prep course. A course saves you the work of building a plan and a question bank.

What are the sessions with a P.Eng. in Guided?

Guided includes two 30-minute, one-on-one sessions with a P.Eng., on any NPPE topic you choose, such as a law or ethics topic you keep missing. Book them from your dashboard or your profile any time while your plan is active, together or on different days. They are two sessions, not a class or ongoing tutoring, and the other plans do not include them.

How does the Safety Net money-back promise work?

The Safety Net comes with NPPE Safety Net and NPPE Guided, bought from 29 September 2026. Before your sitting, finish every lesson, answer every practice question, review every flashcard and complete all 4 mock exams. Your scores don't matter. Sit the NPPE while your plan is active, or within 30 days of it ending. If your official result is a fail, email it to support@nppepro.ca within 30 days. You get your money back (everything you paid for the plan) and a new 3-month Safety Net period to prepare again, which you can start any time within 12 months. One claim per person. It is a promise about your money, not about your result: no prep plan can promise a pass. Read the Safety Net terms.

Can I pay for NPPE Pro in instalments?

Yes. Choose Pay in 4 with Klarna under any plan on the pricing page. Klarna splits the price, plus tax, into 4 payments: the first when you buy, then one every 2 weeks. Your plan opens right away, with the same access as paying by card. See Canadian payment terms. A higher initial payment may be required for some consumers.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. You can start NPPE Pro free without a credit card. The 14-day trial starts from your first finished lesson, so signing up early costs you nothing, and it opens a set of free topics, practice questions and a short mock exam preview.

How does the study plan work?

You tell NPPE Pro which sitting you are writing and it counts back from that date. The weeks are split into four stages: learn the topics, practise and review, mock exams, and a final week. Each day the app shows one task, and it tells you whether you are ahead, on track or behind.

Can I use NPPE Pro on my phone?

Yes. NPPE Pro runs in the browser on any phone, tablet or computer, and your progress follows your account. Lessons and practice sessions are sized for a phone, so a session fits on a commute or a lunch break. There is nothing to install.

Is NPPE Pro affiliated with my regulator or the NPPE?

No. NPPE Pro is an independent study platform built by CertNova, the team behind CBA Pro and competencybasedassessment.ca. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by any engineering or geoscience regulator, or by the administrators of the NPPE.
