The Career Appraisal Route to Incorporated or Chartered Engineer

About the Career Appraisal Route

The Career Appraisal route is intended for those who have the necessary academic qualifications to sit a Professional Review at IEng or CEng level but have not had the opportunity to start or complete a formal Training Agreement.

Before applying for a Professional Review a candidate must have completed a Training Agreement or a Career Appraisal to demonstrate their initial professional development (IPD).

The normal academic requirement for a potential Incorporated Engineer wishing to sit Member Professional Review (MPR) is a UK BEng in Civil Engineering or equivalent. Success at MPR allows the use of the letters IEng MICE.

The normal academic requirement for a potential Chartered Engineer wishing to sit a Chartered Professional Review (CPR) is a UK MEng in Civil Engineering or equivalent. Success at CPR allows the use of the letters CEng MICE.
