  26. What makes an engineer? • ENGINEERS have a few things in common • #1 concern is PUBLIC SAFETY • They are PROFESSIONAL • They KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG

  27. What is a professional engineer? vs professional Professional EXAMPLES: Michael Jordon is a professional athlete. The carpenter did a professional job. A Professional Engineer has proven that they have the KNOWLEDGE, the TECHNICAL EXPERIENCE, and the ETHICAL abilities to be an engineer.

  28. IRON RING • Worn by Professional Engineers on the little finger of the working hand. • Symbolizes the pride in the Engineering Profession • Reminds engineers of their humility and obligations to the public • The Corporation of the seven wardens inc. The Ritual of the Calling of an Engineer dates back to 1922.

  29. The Engineering Associations decide who are Professional Engineers
