How did you achieve professional registration?

Have you achieved professional registration even though you didn’t hold an accredited academic qualification? Did you follow a non-standard route to professional registration.



In our recent blog post "Professional Registration: What you need to know" we asked for your personal experiences of achieving professional registration and meeting the competences, what are your experiences?

  • Hi Kevin,



    Glad to see that you are keen to kickstart your journey to professional registration!  I may be slightly biasedas I work directly with candidates working toward professional registration, but my top tips for getting started would be:



    Read up on the UK-SPEC competences if you haven't already done so and consider which registration category is right for you; you can find these either on the website or in Career Manager.



    If you don't already have a mentor then you may want to consider getting one (as has been previously mentioned in this thread) - either within your company or through the IET's mentoring service.



    Kind Regards,
