ITE—A Community of Transportation Professionals (ITE) works to improve mobility and safety for all transportation system users, helping to build smart and livable communities.
Founded in 1930, ITE is a volunteer-driven association of more than 18,000 engineers, planners, consultants, educators, researchers, technologists, and students working in more than 78 countries.
ITE National Capital Section (ITE NCS) is affiliated with the ITE Canada District. We provide opportunities for professional development and community building throughout the National Capital Region. This includes Ottawa and surrounding areas on the Ontario side of the Ottawa River and Gatineau on the Quebec side of the river. NCS welcomed ITE members from across the country during the last pre-pandemic ITE Canada Annual Conference in Ottawa in June 2019.
Each year, NCS hosts technical presentations and tours, networking events, and STEM outreach activities for its members. NCS also annually collaborates with the local Carleton University student chapter on events.
The Section is proud to have won multiple awards for the hard work of volunteers who have served on the NCS Executive over the years. NCS’s STEM Outreach event with the Boys and Girls Club of Ottawa won the 2019 ITE STEM Outreach Competition in the Small Event Category. The Section also won the Section Delta Award in 2015 and more recently, the Section Momentum Awards from both ITE Canada and ITE International in 2021.
