Applications for membership to the Planning Engineers Organisation do not include a

face-to-face professional interview or the sitting of an examination. The application

applications will be rejected.

The details that you enter in the shaded boxes will be included on the PEO website.

This application form requests personal information as well as project information. Any
personal information we collect from the application will be used in accordance with the
