Hi Everyone,



New to this forum, I am currently working for Network Rail as a Senior Estimator within IP Signalling at York.



I am working towards my IEng (from EngTech) and looking to pick up plenty of hints and tips from here!



Kind regards,

Hello

IET Professional Development Community



My name is Nouman Abid Chuhan HND Engg B.Tech Hons IEng MIET.  I am from Pakistan.  I think that i am the first Incorporated Engineer from Pakistan having B.Tech Hons Degree.  My area is Electronics & Telecommunications and Procurement.  I have been working not only in Pakistan but Saudi Arabia both in public and private sectors having more than 12 years aggregate employment experience.  I am happy that both Engineering and Technology professions are equally recognized all over the world.  But unfortunately, Technology profession could not gain equal status in my country Pakistan as provided to Engineering profession due to professional jealousy of Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC).  I alongwith my other B.Tech Hons (new name B.Sc Engineering Technology) fellows, continuously struggling but PEC always come in front against us. Therefore career progression is blocked through out the country by PEC and their allies.  Unfortunately IET could also not establish its office at Pakistan and Pakistani IET members could not take full benefits from the IET till yet regarding career progression.  Please dont mind, these are the realities but still i and my fellows struggling and hoping for our good future soon, insha Allah.



Thank you.

Hi everyone!


I've been a member of the IET since I was a student of Electronic Engineering at Manchester University, graduating in 2001. Since then I have had an entertainingly varied career, culminating in joining my family's engineering company, Promtek Limited, in 2009.


I am now the Managing Director of the company and am working hard to embed engineering best practice and CPD into the organisation so that it continues to be innovative and sustainable long after I retire.


Of course, I'm starting with myself, so I'm restarting the process of engaging with the IET and pursuing Chartered Engineer status.


I have joined this community to hopefully be supported and encouraged by others in the same position as me, but also in time I hope to provide support for newcomers to the process.
