** Ask the Expert ** - Professional Registration

Hello and welcome to the IET Women's Network’s first ''Ask the Expert'' discussion area, focusing on professional registration!

 

This area of the discussion forum allows you to interact with skilled IET Professional Registration Advisors, (PRA’s) helping you to get a feel for the benefits of becoming professionally registered but to also address any misconceptions associated with the application process.





This discussion forum provides you with:

 


An online, professional, global networking platform, in which you can ask questions that may be answered by members, volunteers, PRA’s and members of the interview panel;

 



An opportunity for further networking and knowledge sharing / acquisition;

 



A means of encouragement and support for you and others;

 



Builds confidence in initiating the application process;


 

There are significantly lower numbers of professionally registered women, within the IET, when compared to that of their male counterpart.

 

If the reason for this is due to a misconception surrounding the application process or uncertainty as to what the benefits are, then this forum will serve as a means of helping to alter those perceptions and inform you of how professional registration can be of benefit to you.

 

We do hope that you will take advantage of this ‘’Ask the Expert’’ discussion area.



Kind regards,

Jo Foster

    Thanks Victoria, I'm currently trying to work out who might be chartered in my new job as I work with a range of engineers, designers and software developers. I'm hoping to have an opportunity to ask in a more informal/social situation rather than just walking up to someone in the office and put them on the spot. 



    While on my current project I couldn't provide diagrams for some of my previous projects I would like to include diagrams/drawings, is this a common occurence in the appliactions you've seen previously? I think it would be very helpful but I was unsure of the ettiquette.



    I will save the main report writing until winter though and make sure I don't miss the great British summer!
