ARE CENG AND IENG EQUAL IN STATUS

Can we say that the CEng and IEng be considered equal titles in professional status or IEng is inferior than CEng.

As the Application Form for both CEng and IEng is same.

    ​After reading more of the report, I have a few more comments.

    ​From lessons learned 2 points:  

    ​ (1) A good 'product' is essential to attract partners.

    ​ (2) There is never going to be %100 sign up to such a programme.


    ​Takes me back to when the IET was being formed and 2 of the PEI's backed out, namely IMechE and ICE, especially since they along with IET have requested this report, which recommends PEI's amalgamate.


    DECLINING NUMBERS:

    ​PEI's registrant numbers for the years 2004-2014 indicate quite a drop for IEng and EngTech numbers which does'nt surprise me, considering how the IEng's somehow over these years have been pushed to the "back of the bus", so to speak.  In 1998 the Engineering Council suggested that Chartered Engineers and Incorporated Engineers have a prefix 'Engineer' title.

    ​In the year 2000 there were 200,000 CEng's, 50,000 IEng's and 16,000 EngTech's.  Tells a story, does'nt it.?

     
    ​Chartered Engineer and Registered Engineer, only.


    Could be a good idea, but how about trying to use a system similar to the old German system of Dipl.Ing (U) and Dipl.Ing (FH), engineer and technologist called a Dipl.Ing, but having to add their actual level of university (U or FH) after the Dipl.Ing.

    Chartered Engineer (ML) , Chartered Engineer (BL).   (ML) = Masters Level,  (BL) = Bachelors Level.   Only a suggestion, considering we tried to have the title Incorporated Engineer changed, quite a few years ago and failed.
