There are a number of educational institutions (Vocational Schools, Trades Schools & Technical Schools) in Canada & the US that you can acquire the P.E.T. or Stationary Engineering learning materials and textbooks, including S.A.I.T. itself.
For the United States it is best to go to US Labor Agencies (Click here to go to a list of US Labor Agencies) and ask where to access the educational materials. It will vary from state to state and can change through the years.
The best approach is to go through the U.S. training and apprenticeship section of this site to acquire the information you need to get the training materials you want.
The Southern Alberta Institute of Technology [S.A.I.T.] is your main contact in Canada and internationally for those who wish to deal directly. You can go to go to the Canadian training and apprenticeship section or call or write http://www.powerengineering.ca.
S.A.I.T. is one of the leading North American authorities and has been in operation since 1916. It has over 5000 students enrolled at any given point. The majority are located in North America but some are located in places like THE UNITED ARAB EMIRENCE, SAUDI ARABIA, HONG KONG, BERMUDA, MALAYSIA, BELIZE, BARBADOS, AUSTRALIA, PERU, JAMAICA AND CHILE.
They have and offer the best of everything.
Look in the yellow pages of your telephone directory for your local technical institutions that may offer this material. If you have no luck at this strategy call S.A.I.T. directly or www.powerengineering.ca. They may be able to give the name and address of the closest educational institution offering their training materials or simply provide materials directly to you.
There are opportunities for foreign students to attend full time classes at S.A.I.T. at a reasonable cost. In most cases costing much less than a college education in the U.S. The cost of taking the time and spending the money are out weighed by the benefits, weather it be in class or via correspondence studies.
