Professional Development Advice

James Devlin
I would very much like some advice on my professional development,


I am a time served Electrician with 12 years experiance and have been promoted to contracts manager, I have been in my current role of contracts manager for 3 years now and have worked on a numer of large scale projects from industrial units to HV installations 


Due to the lack of university qualifications I would very much like to get my skills recongnised and registered,

I have been graded by the JIB as and Installation Electricain and Electrical Contracts Manager but my goal now is to register as MIET and I would have liked to progress to IEng


Is this a realistic grading without the university degree behind me? Can anyone advise another alternative?


I look forward to your reply

    John provided good advise.
    Here is what I think additional action to take.
    1. get advise from IET adviser.
    2. log in to Engineering Council web site and IET web site. Honestly check how your experience and training match the UK PSEC 
    for registration as IEng. 
    Download the registration packet.
    If you are MIET you are already recognized by European Directive as
    Profession Title: Electrical and computer (technology) engineer   
    MIET is a regulated professional title recognised in Europe by the Directive 2005/36.
    MIET is listed on the part 2 professions regulated by professional bodies incorporated by Royal Charter-Statutory Instruments 2007 No. 2781 Professional Qualifications-The European Communities (Recognition of Professional Qualifications) Regulations 2007
    Also its never to late to earn a university degree, you may gain advanced standing so maybe need only 2 years or less, and new knowledge.
    There are many evening and distance education options as well. The time will pass any way you will get a degree and be able to better compete for jobs etc.
