The 2nd Class Part A (2A) exam in Manitoba

In Manitoba, power engineering certification is administered by Inspection and Technical Services (ITS), Manitoba Labour and Immigration. The 2nd Class exam is written as separate papers (Part A and Part B), each 100 multiple-choice questions, 3 hours, 65% to pass. This course covers Part A (2A). Manitoba uses the standardized SOPEEC papers, so a question bank keyed to the national SOPEEC syllabus applies directly.

Regulator: Inspection and Technical Services. Last verified 15 June 2026 — confirm current requirements with Inspection and Technical Services before you register.

Is the 2nd Class Part A (2A) right for you in Manitoba?

The 2nd Class is a senior operating-engineer certification — advanced plant theory and management for large, complex facilities.

Arenas & ice rinks: Manitoba's Ice Facility Operator Class certificate (effective ~July 30, 2025) is the arena shift-engineer ticket — one tier below the Refrigeration Class, which also qualifies.
Pools & aquatic centres: No power engineer ticket mandated for pool operation; a boiler over plant thresholds still needs the appropriate class.
Requirements vary by plant size and facility — confirm what your role needs with Inspection and Technical Services.
