What is Chartered Engineer

In the United Kingdom, a chartered engineer is an engineer registered with the Engineering Council (the British regulatory body for engineers). Contemporary chartered engineers are degree-qualified and have gained professional competencies through training and experience. The formation process of a chartered engineer generally consists firstly of an accredited Master in Engineering degree and secondly a minimum of four to six years professional post graduate experience. The title chartered engineer is protected by civil law. The Engineering Council regulates professional engineering titles in the UK. There are no laws governing the practice of engineering in the UK. With more than 180,000 registrants from many countries, designation as a chartered engineer is one of the most recognizable international engineering qualifications.

Qualifications required for registration[edit]

According to the Engineering Council, chartered engineers "are characterized by their ability to develop appropriate solutions to engineering problems, using new or existing technologies, through innovation, creativity and change. They might develop and apply new technologies, promote advanced designs and design methods, introduce new and more efficient production techniques, marketing and construction concepts, pioneer new engineering services and management methods. Chartered engineers are variously engaged in technical and commercial leadership and possess interpersonal skills."[citation needed]
CEng requirements
Designation as a PE in the U.S. or PEng in Canada is a license to practice based upon core qualification elements of technical practice and education. CEng is an international qualification brand and a benchmark. To receive designation as a CEng, it is required in addition to engineering education on MEng level or equivalent UKSPEC training and experience to also demonstrate significant technical (design competencies) and commercial leadership and management competencies.[1]
For registration as a CEng, candidates must demonstrate that they are professionally competent through education, training and professional practice. Although many current chartered engineers have Higher National Certificates and Diplomas, honours degrees in engineering, science or mathematics, since 1997 it has been necessary to demonstrate further learning most commonly by completion of a four or five-year (in England and Wales) or five or six-year (in Scotland) integrated MEng degree, or by gaining an appropriate masters degree following completion of a three or four-year (in England and Wales) or four or five-year (in Scotland) honours baccalaureate degree in engineering or a cognate subject. The details of these engineering degrees are available on the Engineering Council website.
Candidates are also required to demonstrate an appropriate level of professional competence to practice. This is accomplished through evidence gained from years of professional development, and by a professional review, interview and technical presentation in front of a professional board. The candidate's competence is further assessed during the final stage of assessment (professional review interview), conducted by two chartered engineers and a chairperson. A full description of the requirements for registration appears at the Engineering Council's website.[2] Overall, it takes a minimum of eight years — but most often at least 10 years — of university education and postgraduate training to achieve the chartered engineer qualification. Chartered engineers are recognized in Europe as regulated professions, by the Directive 2005/36.[citation needed]

Designatory lettering

Chartered engineers are entitled to use the suffix 'CEng' after names as a means of emphasising their status with the Engineering Council. They can also make use of a logo, which is intended primarily for use in correspondence and on business cards. This is restricted to use by Engineering Council registrants only, through approval by the patent office for its registration as a certification mark. This is written after honours, decorations and academic/university, but before letters denoting membership of professional engineering institutions. When a chartered engineer has more than one institution membership conferring designatory letters, the institution through which the holder is registered as a chartered engineer appears immediately after CEng, with other memberships following in order of the institution's foundation dates.

International equivalence

The level of competence required for registration as a chartered engineer in the U.K. is comparable to many continental European countries that require masters-level education for registration as a professional engineer. Since the Engineering Council moved to undergraduate masters-level and postgraduate Master of Science qualifications required for registration, there have been inconsistencies in the Washington Accordagreement on the recognition of academic qualifications. M.Eng degrees in Canada for example take 5-6 years including a BEng versus 4-5 years in the UK.
Chartered engineers are entitled to register through the European Federation of National Engineering Associations as a European engineer and use the pre-nominal of Eur Ing.

You must win at the first stage


I had email to IEM HQ to ask regarding my PI result. It became more complicated. Now, my report has to be submitted to another commitee.

It is all began with the second interviewer who commented my PI report was not satisfactory. then, my report has been submitted to third reviewer. The third reviewer gave the same comment. Then, my report has been submitted to PI board. See... how complex it works. It is at the third stage now. Tomorrow, my report will be submitted to executi commitee. I have know the results. I'm going to fail.

The reason is simple. Normally, executive comittee will take the comment from their subordinate.

I had make a research on how to face any consequences. If pass, it all become nice. If fail, you should wait one year to sit back PI. Fuh!! so bored to wait.

By the way, the key point is, always tackle your first interviewer. In case second interviewer was not satisfy, the first interviewer can overwrite the second interviewer.

I was nervous. To be continued...

My PI ....

I had been email to Mrs. Norimah yesterday asking about my PI results. She wrote back, my results was returned by third interviewer to IEM HQ.

Wah, it created more tensed. She also said that my results will be bring to IEM Meeting (another meeting). And the final outcome should be next week. My dear readers, please pray for me.

There are two consequences, whether fail or pass.

But I hope, it will be pass. Just to share, it took almost one year since I had submitted my application to sit for PI. My form had been rejected for 5 times... and now I'm going to face the results. Wait..............
