The IET is a Scam-according to the CISCO "Engineers"!..

    The blog is dated 2010 and reflects some of the IETs efforts to modernise, by more fairly recognising forms of learning gained outside just academic environments.  This included working with leading employers to accredited the learning inherent in their training and development processes. A key driver for this effort was the statement in UK-SPEC about “further learning” for those prospective Chartered Engineers holding a Bachelors Degree. There was also an effort by members working in this domain to ensure that the IET was “user friendly”. One consequence was the creation of a new registration category of Information and Communications Technology Technician.  

    Nearly ten years later, giving fairer value to forms of learning which don’t carry academic endorsement has become normal. Most other professional bodies lack effective capability to evaluate alternative forms of learning. A typical give away, is the use of language like “academic requirements” rather than “ideal benchmarks”.
