Quality Assurance Committee on CPD requirement



Published: 01/11/2018

 



All Engineering Council registrants are committed to maintaining and enhancing their competence, which means undertaking Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

From 1 January 2019, licensed members will be required to sample their registrants’ CPD and sampling activity will become part of the licence review process.
Professionally active registrants who persistently do not respond to or engage with requests for CPD records from their institution risk removal from the Engineering Council Register.

    I don't understand why the EC doesn't have a discussion forum, setup on its network, specifically for registrants to discuss matters about registration, promoting CEng, IEng, EngTech and ICTTech, CPD and subscription fees, amongst other things? That way, more IEngs could participate in a collective manner, rather than being segragated from each other into different PEIs. The collective thoughts of IEngs from all the PEIs could make a world of difference if they could engage with each other and with senior staff working at the EC. Perhaps, results could then be achieved much quicker.


    There is something clearly wrong with the way the EC is preventing this from happening. Addressing this failing is far more important than worrying about doing one's CPD, because it's giving the impression the EC is a non-transparent organisation. You have to go through a PEI to communicate with the EC.
