Only Ties?

Former Community Member

Hello,


Set off to the Rohde & Schwarz Demystifying EMC event this morning. Upon arrival at the Silverstone car park, I proceeded to get my IET tie out and promptly put it back in my bag after realizing I was not wearing a post Christmas shirt and the collar was a bit too tight to be kept fastened. That got me thinking along the lines of what else could be made available to fly the IET membership flag ..... and then it came to me, enamel lapel badges!


So how about adding them alongside ties?


Regards,


Jon


P.S. The Rohde & Schwarz event was very good!

    Roy and Andy,

    Unfortunately I think you have the situation completely right (that is to say, the situation is unfortunate, not the fact that you have it right).

    I often feel that my work represents a mixture of IEng and CEng and couldn't be completed without both aspects playing their part. I have always valued those who are IEng and consider registration to be registration regardless of 'level'. I think the most important knowledge anyone needs is to know your own limitations, and I have met many CEng who have not gained this understanding, which seems to be more prevalent among IEng registrants.

    Getting back to the subject, I note Roy's point about IEng (or even EngTech) perhaps being reluctant to allow CEng registrants to feel superior and perhaps the answer is to have one tie for IET Registered Engineers (whether CEng, IEng or EngTech), with possibly a second one for Fellows (which is independent of the level of registration, but shows additional commitment to the industry). This would start to show that within the IET at least all levels of registration are equally valued.
