Is it possible to remain a CEng if IET membership is ended?

Chris Kessell
As the title - I'm sure the answer is written down somewhere but I can't find it. 


I've been both CEng and MIET/MIEE for 20+ years, but I'm tempted not to renew my IET membership any longer.  Does anyone know if it's possible to pay the CEng annual fee direct to the Engineering Council?


Thanks.

    The Engineering Council's Policy Statement on CPD states:   "Professionally active registrants who persistently do not respond to or engage with requests for CPD records from a Licensed Member risk removal from the Engineering Council Register".  The IET's Rules of Conduct state:   "Members shall keep their knowledge and skills up-to-date through planned professional development and seek to broaden and deepen that knowledge throughout their working life".  The key is being Professionally Active.  From the IET's point of view, we expect Retired members who act as Volunteers within the IET to undertake 30 hours CPD and we have a reduced CPD requirement of 10 hours per annum for others who wish to remain engaged, but if you are fully retired, you can retain your Professional Registration without undertaking any CPD.
