Peter, having now seen your response to Alasdair, I hope my last response addresses it, but just on your two specific points, no, most emphatically not, an engineering degree does not, on its own or in conjunction with PMI or APM demonstrate that you are a practicing, competent, committed and professional engineer. As for the lack of interest in I.Eng by most employers, there's no disagreement by anybody on here at all, but that's exactly the point so many of us are making, that we need to tackle that and turn it round as it offers a valuable affirmation of a highly important level of engineer which forms an essential component of the range of engineering roles and activities. I completely understand, and you'll see most of us on here have acknowledged it, that until employers' attitudes change, there really is no incentive to seek registration as I.Eng.
