How many of you are Professionally Registered?

It would be great for others to read about how you found the process, what the benefits are, what you feel could improve the process and what difference it has made to your career!

Also, what advice would you give to somebody thinking of becoming Professionally Registered and what words of encouragement would you give to them?

  • Hi Jo (and all),



    Personally I think this would be a great idea. 



    Most of the people I deal with (a lot of them remotely via email, Skype, etc) have problems getting started.  The inertia at the start of the process is the biggest obstacle - no matter where you are in your career.  Many people find it helpful to see examples of others ideas for completing forms - how to structure them, what to include, etc.  Also ideas for what to include in their portfolio.  This is particularly true for people who are looking for recognition for IEng, or Eng Tech, or people with longer careers who have never thought about registration before.



    It always helps to talk about these things.  One of the reasons the mentor/PPRA process works is because you can ask questions and get help and advice. 



    Having a peer group supporting each other would be great, a big step forward for thse who want to achieve the recognition they deserve.
