Just like the term Architect got blurry/extended with the time, the same is with Scientists. We have Enterprise Architects and Data Scientists who are not the classical Architect or Scientists by definition.
For the Engineers registered with the EC its the UK SPEC that defines the standard and framework for the registration as an Engineer.
We learn in different settings, from the library, at work, at universities and schools. Recognition of work-based learning with a combination of training and education all contribute to the formation of an Engineer.
Some countries by law one can't call themselves an Engineer unless they are registered, and to be registered a recognized accredited Bachelors's degree required.
Same with scientists, some countries its top of the educated persons who hold Ph.D. and /or Dr. degrees and involved with Science.
A really very good answer, CEng Moshe! I have marked it as ' Best answer' ! Thank you !
