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.

  • Roy,

    Many thanks for your kind words. However to take up your earlier comment about academic qualifications indicating future potential at 21-22, in my case at that age I had an OND and was getting my hands oily, with the result that now I am all for looking beyond qualifications to see a persons capabilities as they are, regardless of the route to the present position. It didn't hold me back in the long term (though I did subsequently do a degree at university) but it gave me insight into the value of apprenticeships and working on the shop floor (or in my case, the ship floor, being in the merchant navy).
