Time to create a new professional registration for Engineering Technologists

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. It is obvious the current UKSPEC standard lacks credibility in terms of the IEng grade

    Again, Its just my opinion and you can ignore it.

    As I'm not a UK citizen.


    I think the best thing to do would be grandfather/ promote in one step all IEng's into CEng registration and stop registering new IEng.


    Create clarity with only one Engineer registration. CEng


    Has time come for  Registered Certified Engineering Technologist?  Keep the UK SPEC and adjust UK SPEC if needed.


    Keep the Engineering Technician its great designation and respectful one as the first registration level.


    Just a thought.
