In a situation in which a professional engineering corporation defaults on a large debt, creditors can recover their loss
Answer : C
NPPE materials explain the principle of limited liability. A corporation is a separate legal entity, and creditors' remedies are generally limited to the corporation's assets. Professional liability insurance covers professional negligence, not corporate debt. Personal assets of executives are protected absent fraud or statutory exceptions, and regulators do not satisfy private debts.
Whistle-blowing may be a consideration if a professional observes unsafe, unethical, or illegal practices. Which of the following statements about whistle-blowing is true?
Answer : C
NPPE materials emphasize that whistle-blowing is a last-resort action after internal resolution efforts fail. While sometimes necessary to protect the public, it can carry serious personal and professional consequences, including strained employment relationships and reputational harm. It is not the preferred or first approach to resolving conflicts.
A licensed professional is moonlighting after-hours and providing services in the same professional capacity as those provided to their primary employer. Which of the following statements is the most accurate regarding the licensed professional's behaviour?
Answer : B
NPPE ethics materials recognize that professionals may engage in secondary employment, provided it does not create conflicts of interest, misuse confidential information, or exploit employer resources. Full disclosure and consent from all affected parties are required.
Option B correctly reflects this guidance. Options C and D clearly violate ethical obligations, and option A is overly restrictive and inconsistent with NPPE principles.
Before approving work done by others not under his or her direct supervision, a professional member must:
Answer : C
NPPE materials state that when a professional authenticates work not prepared under their direct supervision, they must exercise due diligence by conducting a thorough and critical review sufficient to understand, verify, and validate the work. The professional must be satisfied that the work meets applicable standards and must accept full professional responsibility. A cursory review or reliance on interviews alone is insufficient, and redoing all calculations is not required if a proper professional review is conducted.
Peer review is a process used by organizations and individuals to assess employees' performance and to identify potential improvements in their professional practices.
Which of the following statements related to peer review in the context of professional practice is false?
Answer : B
NPPE materials state that peer review is a valuable quality assurance and improvement tool but is not universally mandatory or legally required for assessing professional competence. Peer reviews may be voluntary or required in specific contexts, such as internal quality programs or regulator-led practice reviews, but they are not a general legal requirement. Options A, C, and D accurately describe accepted peer review practices.
