This lunchtime webinar is aimed at experienced engineering professionals who have progressed into senior technical, leadership or management roles through their professional experience and are now largely removed from day-to-day engineering activities.

If this sounds like you and you are considering the next step towards Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration but do not hold a Master’s degree or equivalent qualification, the Experiential Route could be the pathway for you.

Join Andy Cole, Chartered Engineer, Mentor and Reviewer, and Heather Suarez, Membership and Qualifications Manager at the IHE, for an informative session exploring the Experiential Route to Chartered Engineer status.

During the webinar, you’ll gain practical, step-by-step guidance on how the route works, how to determine whether it is right for you, and how to prepare your “Verify My Route” submission for approval to be processed via this route. The session will also explain the knowledge, skills and experience you need to demonstrate equivalence to the academic requirements for CEng registration.

Whether you are ready to apply now or are planning your future professional development, this webinar will help you understand your options and take the next steps on your journey to becoming a Chartered Engineer.
