Plant Engineering and Maintenance Association of Canada
PEMAC is a national not for profit association providing global leadership, education and certification in world class maintenance,
reliability and physical asset management practices.
Learn
Over the last 20 years our focus has been on the development and growth of our signature Maintenance Management Professional Certificate program. We are dedicated to remaining leaders in education and certification and are currently working on that important question, "What's Next?" for continuing professional development in the field of maintenance, reliability and physical asset management.
"Through concepts such as the 'Maintenance Maturity Grid' the MMP Program really helped me to analyze where we are as a team and where we need to go to achieve maintenance excellence. I think this is the key to being able to call myself maintenance professional. In addition, having a clear understanding of the relationships between Maintenance, Operations, Human Resources and Finance really helps our team work together with others to create a good strategy with priorities based on return on investment for the company."
- Bejoy Mathew, P.Eng, MMP, Planning Manager (Facilities Maintenance and Operation), Suncor Energy Inc., Fort McMurray, Alberta (Pictured Above)

Chapter Activities
Through participation at Chapter events you can meet people who do a similar job to you for another company or in another industry and get a fresh view point on challenges you are currently facing.

Training Events
Education and training is also a great networking opportunity. Many participants in the Maintenance Management Professional Certifice program state that meeting and learning with other professionals was one of the key benefits of taking an MMP course.
