CEng Application - Anybody with RECENT experience of the whole process?

Jason Wong
I am hoping to be in a position to submit an application for CEng relatively soon (after many years of pondering about registering). I need to do a bit of further work on my application content following advice from a PRA and one of my friends who got registered as CEng within the last few years. Then I just need my supporters to review and support my application (this may take time depending on how busy they are).


While I do more work on my application and wait for supporters to do their parts... Are there any recently registered CEng people who don't mind sharing the experience of the whole process through the IET? Any tips and advice on any aspects of the process? From submitting the application form through to the interview and presentation.


Would also be interesting to hear from anybody who has had any problems with the process? What would you do differently (or the IET could do differently to help improve things)?


Thanks,


Jason.

    I would recommend trying to contain the information in your application to the 12 page guideline as far as you are able to and focus your detail on your most recent roles and experiences with UK-SPEC in mind.  As Graham has said, the assessors are looking for detail on how you have achieved this competence as a career narrative of your personal story, so you should focus on your own personal responsibility and actions in each role.


    If you feel that you would benefit from a second opinion then a mentor or professional registration advisor can help you at this stage; as a single point of contact I would suggest a PRA (www.theiet.org/advice) or if you feel it is more ongoing support you need, then a mentor may be better suited.  Either way, know that you are not alone in the application process and we are here to help.


    I hope that you get a few more experiences from other members who have applied that may also help with some hints and tips; as someone on the staff that advises candidates my advice is always to read the guidance notes carefully and speak to a PRA before applying.
