The council of the Professional Engineers Ontario (PEO) has appointed Jennifer Quaglietta as PEO’s chief executive officer/registrar.
As registrar, Quaglietta will be responsible for PEO’s administration of the professional engineers act. Under the authority of the act, PEO licenses professional engineers, and sets standards for and regulates engineering in Ontario.
“On behalf of our council, I’m thrilled to welcome Jennifer to our organization,” said Nick Colucci, President, PEO. “Jennifer has achieved extensive success and leadership in activities supporting public protection, policy and strategy, operations, and quality improvement. These skills will be invaluable as we continue to fulfil our legislative mandate while advancing our enterprise-wide transformation through such notable initiatives as implementing a mandatory continuing professional program for license holders and creating a more efficient, transparent and objective licensing system that complies with recent amendments to the Fair Access to Regulatory Professions and Compulsory Trades Act.”
Quaglietta previously served as vice-president, performance excellence and information services at the Healthcare Insurance Reciprocal of Canada.
