Preparing for Professional Registration training course

About the training course

With increased demand for online learning we have created a live webinar for those interested in becoming Professionally Registered. Professional Registration can enhance you career prospects by recognising your skills and experience and demonstrating your commitment to professionalism.

These professional qualifications are peer-assessed and internationally recognised. The IET is licensed by the Engineering Council to assessapplicants and award the following titles CEng, IEng, EngTech and ICTTech.

This six hour course has been designed over two days and will take you through the requirements of UK-SPEC and the process of preparing and submitting an application for Professional Registration.

You will learn how to plan, record and review your professional development as you progress towards registration, including how to assess your skills level against the relevant framework and how those supporting you can help along the way.

In your homework you will be able to assess your work experience against the set competences in the UK-SPEC ready to share with the group the following day, the homework should take approximately one hour.

After the course, you will receive ongoing support from our Registration Engagement team, who possess comprehensive knowledge of the requirements and pathways to professional registration.

You will be offered bespoke support and guidance tailored to assist you in your ongoing journey. This dedicated support aims to ensure your continued progress and success in achieving your professional registration goals.
