  2. Top 3 benefits of being a CPEng: The following are the top 3 benefits of attaining Chartership via registration: 1.High standard: Have recognition as an industry leader with a post nominal showing your high level of engineering knowledge. This recognition will bring you countless new career opportunities. Everybody will consider you a credible engineer. This post nominal will be evidence that you value professionalism, ethics and continual learning. 2.More opportunities worldwide: Mutual recognition of your engineering capability will help you find work overseas like a walk in the park. In simple words, attaining Chartership is proof of your meeting internationally-benchmarked standards. Thus, the whole world will give you a warm welcome with open arms. 3.More attention and respect than others: Being a Chartered Professional Engineer will give momentum to engineering career growth. Many employers and authorities need engineers with Chartership to sign off certain work. This status assures them that you are a competent and one of the top-class engineers. Eligibility criteria you need to fulfill to become a CPEng: All engineers are eligible for this status, and the same assessment applies to all. The registration authority provides different categories for technologist, professional, technician or geologist. Professional Engineer: Complicated engineering issues and activities ·Washington Accord (4-year BE) or equivalence ·Chartered Member ·CPEng ·IntPE(NZ)/APEC Engineer

  3. Engineering Technologist: Widely-defined engineering issues and activities ·Sydney Accord (3-year BEngTech) or equivalence ·IntET(NZ) ·Chartered Member (Eng.Technologist) Engineering Technician: Well-defined engineering issues and activities ·Dublin Accord (2-year NZDE) or equivalence ·Chartered Member (Eng.Technician) ·IntETn(NZ) Engineering Geologist: Complex engineering geological issues and activities ·Recognized postgraduate qualification in Engineering Geology ·Chartered Member (PEngGeol) What is mutual recognition? You can directly apply for Chartered Membership if having an engineering registration. This registration must be with a signatory to the Washington, Sydney or Dublin Accord. Knowledge assessment: What if you don’t have a Washington Accord-accredited qualification? In this case, you can show equivalent knowledge for entry into Professional Engineer (Chartered Membership or Chartered Professional Engineer). For that, you need to go through a knowledge assessment. If not having a Sydney or Dublin Accord-accredited qualification, the authority will assess your equivalent knowledge. It will be as part of your Chartership assessment. What are the two ways to become a CPEng in New Zealand? There are two ways to attain Chartered status in New Zealand as an engineer. The first one is through Engineering New Zealand membership. The second one is through registration as a Chartered Professional Engineer (CPEng).

  4. The Chartered Member class offers a general quality mark of professionalism with all the membership benefits. On the other hand, CPEng registration provides a mark of current competency. This competency is based on legislation. You can be both a CPEng and Chartered Member, or only one, up to your wish. Difference between Chartered Membership and CPEng registration: Chartered Member (CMEngNZ) CPEng Registration Quality mark of general competency and professionalism Quality mark of current New Zealand specific competency Engineering New Zealand membership benefits Independent of Engineering New Zealand and is governed by CPEng Act 2002 Evaluated once, with a yearly commitment to ongoing professional development and ethics Re-evaluated at least every six years Assesses general engineering competency to a globally-recognized standard Evaluates general engineering competency to a globally-recognized standard with current New Zealand specific competence Basis of competency for international registers (IntPE, IntET, IntETn) May be necessary depending on your employer or type of work CPEng assessment process: 1.Join the community: If you are not a member yet, join the community and have access to its online member area. Thereafter, record all your work and CPD records that will help build your portfolio of evidence for your Chartership application. In case of a desire to become a member, you will have to add your proof. Add it after completing your Chartership assessment to become a CPEng.

  5. 2.Create work and CPD records: Begin to add work and CPD record right after joining so that you don’t forget the details. Adding records as you go will make it quicker and less complicated to complete your application. Your work records offer your work history evidence and build a picture of the type of engineering activities you perform. The CPD records could include some formal education, conferences, workshops courses, Engineering New Zealand branch or group activities. These records can also include mentoring or volunteering. All these things give proof of your ongoing professional development. Besides that, they count towards Engineering New Zealand members’ requirements for completing 40 hours of CPD each year. 3 Start your application: When you have enough experience for Chartership, start your application. You have to: ·Complete some details regarding you and the practice fields you want to be evaluated for, and upload a current resume ·Supply two referees recommending you for Chartership ·Show the way you fulfill the areas of competency ·Link related work and CPD records as proof of your competency 4.Submit your application: After completing every section of the application, be ready to submit it to the authority. Its team will check that you have everything required in it before it goes for assessment with its assessors. As part of the evaluation, there will be an in-person session. For that, your evaluator may give you a task to know about your experience and knowledge. They will let you know whether you should get Chartership. After that, a Board will make a final decision.
