The number of newly registered incorporated engineers continues to decline. The strategy of the Engineering Council is clearly not aligned to supporting the engineering technologist professional. Given the governments commitment to technical education the IET should create their own professional register to provide a relevant standard.

A few years ago there would have quite a few incorporated engineers participating in this discussion but many are now past the point where peer acceptance is of any importance to them. You have to ask why so many remain registered when it can have no bearing on actual career prospects or professional status. It can only be out of a irrational sentimental attachment to IEng!
