  2. UK-SPECUnited Kingdom Standards for Professional Engineering Competence

  3. Sartor 3 • Perceived Problems: • Lack of clarity of routes and progression • Uncertain status of Incorporated Engineer • Long time to professional status • Need to recognise the Malpas millions • Educational base • Need to focus on output standards

  4. Context • The EPC Engineering Graduate Output Standard • Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education • Bologna Declaration • A Levels – quality, content, structure • Access to Higher Education • ETB and the Chartered Technologist

  5. Sartor 3 – Educational base • CEng • Exemplifying qualification MEng (4yr) • BBB for 80% of entry cohort for accreditation • OR • BEng (Hons) (3yr) • CCC for 80% of entry cohort • Plus MATCHING SECTION (equiv 1yr) • OR • Cognate degree plus MATCHING SECTION

  6. Sartor 3 – Educational base • IEng • BEng non-Honours • Not an attractive degree in HE • Or Higher National qualification and Matching Section

  7. UK-SPEC • Focus on Competence – similar to Sartor 3 • Education bases exemplify underpinning knowledge & understanding • Provide chartered status earlier rather than later • CET as working title • Provide clear progression routes • Clarify international comparabilities • More flexible Educational Base • Provides ‘career appraisal’ route for non-standard registrants

  8. UK-SPEC Educational Base • Input standard requirements an accreditation issue • Focus on Output Standards • Building on EPC Output Standards • and QAA Benchmarks • Raise the standard of IEng educational base

  9. UK-SPEC ‘Formation’

  10. Questions • Are the categories appropriate? • Are titles appropriate? • What more needs to be done on competence statements? • Are exemplifying academic standards appropriate? • What kind of Masters for CEng? • What about output standards? • Are they internationally defensible?

  11. The process • Consultation until 24 April • Consideration by Review Group and Board in May • Publication of finalised specifications in June • Detailed requirements to be drafted from then until autumn • Intended to mesh in with e.g. C Tech consideration
