U.K. ENGINEERING 2016 REPORT

​I have noted in another discussion, several comments of my own, but there seems to be a lack of interest or it takes too long to read and digest the report.

​Apart from Roy's original comments and direction to be able to read the report, it would be great to find out if IMechE, ICE and the IET have had any official comments on the report and if not, when can we expect any.?

P.S. Just had to get away from CEng v IEng status discussion.

    I'm not mingling in UK affairs. Offering an opinion.

    Here is what is happening in other parts of the world and challenges PE's are addressing.

     
    Protecting the PE License


     


    Just last week, at the last minute and without any advanced warning, a bill in the Nevada legislature  (A.B. 353) that would erode occupational licensure in the state was scheduled for consideration the next morning. National and state leaders immediately went in to action, preparing a response to the proposal, including filing a joint letter of opposition before the deadline, which was 5:00 PM that day. As a result of our timely and forceful intervention, in writing and working behind the scenes with our network of national and local licensing contacts, the bill was dropped from the legislative committee's agenda the next day.

    The National Society of Professional Engineers stands today as the only national organization committed to addressing the professional concerns of licensed PEs across all disciplines.


    If you ask me how is this relevant to the discussion and the report, I would say it maybe not relevant and it may be relevant indirectly.
    Can UK engineers benefit from a body with the power that NSPE has in the USA?

    NSPE is a National Society of Professional Engineers.
