CEng Application Process - Feedback / Discussion

So I have now gone through my CEng application process with the IET and had my professional review interview. I am now awaiting my result. I intended to provide some feedabck and questions for discussion regarding the process and my experience of it. This is in the hope of providing some 'positive critical' feedback for both the IET and members who are looking at professional registration. This post is a place holder for that and I will write after I have received my result.


The reason for the place holder is that I don't want any feedback to be construed as sour grapes as is often assumed when somebody provides feedback on this forum. As mentioned, it will be intended as positive critical feedback to help try and improve the process.


I would ask all contributions to this thread to be positive critical and ask people not to hijack it to vent their own displeasure. Try to balance it more to the positive side of things. Otherwise the discussion will be quickly locked by the moderators if it gets out of hand. Thanks.

  • My current career / job status was discussed - mostly because it had changed since I had the application verified. We discussed a little bit about future career but not any specific intentions to change employers or jobs.


    In my case, I am always (everyday) thinking about my future career - CEng or not. I learnt early on in my career that there is no such thing as a job for life or have any expectation that I can forge my entire career within one organisation / employer. I think that should be the case whether you are CEng / engineer / non-engineer... In this modern world, you have to always review your career / learning options in order to stay relevant and useful. I certainly do not wish to be caught out by having the wrong skills and knowledge as the ways of the world changes.


    Will give more detailed feedback about my experience of the process after I my result comes in.
