How To Apply For CPEng Australia With 15+ Years Of Experience
If having more than 15 years of experience as an engineer, then you can apply for the CPEng Australia status.
Engineers Australia has made it much easier
for senior engineers to apply for Chartership via an interview. This pathway
cuts out the industry review and formal assessment steps, acknowledging your
years of experience with a minimal time commitment.
Eligibility
criteria you need to fulfill:
For eligibility, you will be required to
have:
1. A
minimum of 15 years of post-graduate experience
2. Proof
of holding significant responsibility across your career including leading
projects or teams.
3. Engineers
Australia membership at the level of Member or higher.
How
to apply:
If you are eligible, then follow the
below-given instructions:
1.
Pre-approval:
Create an expanded resume that details the
major projects you have taken responsibility for and your key attainments. It
should include the positions you held, situations, problems and opportunities
you have had and expert skills or knowledge you applied to attain a positive
outcome.
The aim of this is to ensure that the
assessors can see how you have fulfilled the 16 Engineers Australia
competencies related to your occupational category.
Your resume must have the names, positions,
companies and contact details of two referees. One of your referees must verify
your resume and qualifications. After that, email your resume and referees to
Engineers Australia to request to apply for Chartered for 15+years of
experience.
2.
Self-assessment:
After that, EA will mail you a
self-assessment form that you have to complete. Complete this form and mail it
back to the authority.
If your pre-approval is confirmed, you will
get another mail from Engineers Australia with a link allowing you to apply by
means of the EA portal.
3.
Prepare
and upload documents:
Use the link you got in the mail, and
adhere to the prompts in the portal to upload:
·
The resume you mailed to
Engineers Australia including the details of your two referees.
·
Proof of your continuing
professional development (CPD). You must have completed at least 150 hours of
CPD over the previous three years.
·
A color-scanned copy of
your photo identification: a passport or driving licence.
4.
Professional
Review:
A professional interview with an EA
assessor is the last step to becoming a CPEng Australia
professional.
EA will be in touch to fix a time for your
professional interview with one of its assessors, and you will get an
invitation to the online Teams or Skype interview. Generally, it takes a few
weeks for an interview to be fixed.
The interview will take nearly an hour and
will include a wide discussion regarding your professional career as an
engineering professional. The evaluator will be looking for proof you have
fulfilled the 16 competencies related to your occupational category. The
authority will also use the interview to make certain that you have deep
engineering knowledge and tremendous experience in your practice area.
It is just advice, not a mandatory rule to
prepare a short presentation introducing yourself and highlighting the major
points or activities illustrating your attainments. A maximum of six to eight
slides are fine.
