PRINCIPLES OF PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPM=
ENT
=
=
Practical
experience, postgraduate
training and interest in the affairs of the profession are essen=
tial
elements in the development of a Professional Engineer. This covers a perio=
d of
acquiring knowledge, skills and attitudes of a professional nature which ca=
n be
learned only in an industrial environment, and are complementary to those
acquired during a degree course. It is a period of developing the potential
required during the studies and in further developing such crucial personal
qualities as responsibility, initiative, creativity, industriousness,
self-confidence, self-esteem etc. Above all, the principle aim is to develop
judgement and critical abilities of the young engineers so that in later li=
fe
they will be better able to undertake engineering projects with due regard =
to
technical, economic, financial, environmental, social and other relevant
factors. The aim is to produce
engineers whose excellence is reflected in the quality of their work,
and who can demonstrate that they are indeed a Professional Engineer as
outlined in Section 1.1.
=
=
After
a period of induction and basic training the Graduates are required to obta=
in a
broad and sound knowledge of engineering practice relevant to the branch of
engineering to which they aspir=
e.
This is to include familiarity with design, materials, tools, techniques and
processes used in that branch and in related branches of engineering.

The
Graduate should develop a flexible attitude so that they can meet the challenge of rapidly changing technology in their
particular branch of engineering.

DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM, DURATION AND REQUIREMENTS
=
All
Graduates proposing to be elected to the class of Member are required to ha=
ve
been engaged for a total stipulated minimum period in the practice of an
engineering discipline. The acceptable periods of practical experience vary
with the quality of guidance received, the degree of supervision under whic=
h it
is conducted and the discipline of the Graduate. In this respect, two major
options have been identified as Programs 1 and 2.
All
Graduates proposing to be elected to the class of Member must complete their
qualifying program of development within a stipulated maximum period. Only =
in
exceptional circumstances will extension of time be considered.
The specific requirements and perio=
ds
for each of these
programs
is given in Clause 8 (Program 1) and Clause 9 (Program 2). Appropriate
undergraduate and postgraduate activities may be accepted as periods of the
PDP. They may qualify for periods of remission from Board's requirements.
Relevant details of such periods of remission are given in Clause 11.
=
For
Program 1, supervision of the Graduate is paramount to the success of the
program. Details of supervision requirements are given in Clause 10.

& Approval of Professional Development Program
PDP
Guides are available from the Board. PDP's proposed by the Employer are
required to meet the principles, objectives and scope as set out in Clauses=
4,
5 and 6 of this document and should conform in principle to the appropriate
model guidelines for the discipline concerned. As far as possible the progr=
am
should be made up of well defined tasks in which the performance of the
Graduate can be judged. It is stressed that Graduates are expected to measu=
re
the degree of success they have achieved at each stage in their program. The
need to measure individual performance does not preclude the inclusion of g=
roup
projects in a program that may well serve as a useful introduction to the v=
alue
of teamwork. The Program should emphasize the complementary nature of theory
and practice.
It
should also be interesting, challenging and relevant to the future career of
the Graduates thus stretching their intellectual powers. It is important th=
at
during the later stages of the program that Graduates be able to carry out =
work
of a Professional Engineering nature for which, they are given a limited de=
gree
of responsibility. This is to develop their sense of professional responsib=
ility
and to test their professional potential.
In

9.1=
General
Requirements
=
The
Board recognises that some Graduates are
unable to take part in a formal PDP or to receive adequate direction from a
Registered Engineer. Consequently an alternative is available to those
Graduates who are not able to follow the formal route that leads to Members=
hip.
Under
Program 2 the experience a Graduate acquires after satisfying the academic
requirements of the Board may be accepted as a PDP. However, such experience must be approve=
d by a
Visiting Registered Engineer (VRE) appointed by the Board. The VRE will be =
also
the mentor for the Graduate. The VRE shall direct the Graduate in receiving=
a
sound and broad understanding of the
particular branch of engineering in line with the general requiremen=
ts
for development in the particular discipline. In this respect, the Graduate and the VR=
E are
strongly advised to carefully study Clause 4 of the present document, which
details the principles of development. The mentor shall ensure that the gen=
eral
experience the Graduate is receiving is of sufficient depth, breadth and
quality, together with experience in certain areas of engineering
administration and management. These requirements are detailed at Clause 6 =
under
the Scope of the PDP.
The VRE will visit the
Graduate at least once every 12 months, preferably more often. The cost of =
the
visit shall be prepaid by the Employer in order for the Institution to arra=
nge
the visit. Alternatively, the employer may arrange to meet travelling, boar=
ding
and lodging expenses together with a stipulated honorarium of K100.00 per v=
isit
for the VRE.
Valuable
guidance as to the type of experience required may be obtained from the
Guidelines issued for Program I. These Guidelines, as well as assistance and
guidance may be obtained on request from the Institution.

Program
=
The Graduate must advise=
the
Board at an early stage that one is unable to follow P.D.P. Program 1, due =

the nature of ones employment. The Graduate should, notify the Board of the
proposal for obtaining the necessary experience and ask for a mentor to be
appointed by the Board. The onus is on the Graduate to arrange the first vi=
sit
of the appointed mentor to the Graduate's work place as specified in the
previous section. Approval of this proposal, including notification as requ=
ired
together with the recommendation of the VRE and the written agreement of the

personally responsible for guiding Graduates through the development progra=
m 1;
it is recognised that Graduates may not always be supervised by Registered
Engineers on a day to day basis.
Under Program 1, the Board must be advised as soon as possible of any change of Supervisor together wi= th associated relevant professional information concerning the new appointee.<= o:p>

remission are:
11.1
Sandwich Courses
Where the University provides a
sandwich course which consists of periods of study interchanged with period=
s of
industrial experience supervised by the University (i.e. by a Registered
Engineer) and the course leads to the award of a qualification which is
approved by Board
to be elected as a Member, the period of remission will be allow=
ed
equal to the period of supervised experience. The maximum period allowed in
this case will be 18 months.
11.2 Pre-tertiary Experience
Graduates who, prior to entering
tertiary education, have had experience approved by the Board in engineering work aft=
er
becoming fully qualified in an engineering trade or having completed
qualifications as engineering technicians may gain a remission equal to
one-third of the period of the approved experience. The maximum period allo=
wed
in this case will be 12 months.
11.3 Research Experience
Graduates who proceed on to
postgraduate studies at the University and who undertake research projects =
in
areas of engineering associated with industry under the supervision of a
Registered Engineer may obtain remissions equal to the period spent on such
projects, subject to maximum remission of two (2) years. In such cases, the remission will be treated as Design experience
under the Guidelines. It is strongly recommended that postgraduate students
commence a PDP Program 2 in or=

11.4
Other Cases
In all other cases the prior experi=

12.3.1
Report on Professional Development Proqram
The objective of the
Graduate's report is to inform the Board about the Graduate's professional
experience and specialist training received and to demonstrate active
participation to promote the aims of the Institution (Section 6.0).<=
/i>=
Reports should be concise, between=
1,600
and 2,000 words, in good English, typewritten and in DUPLICATE on A4 paper.=
At
the head of the report, Graduates must set out in chronological order, givi=
ng
the months and years in each case, the inclusive dates of the particular
periods of experience,
specialist training and summary of professional participation.
The
report is to start from the most recently completed task.In the report (which must not be a mere
inventory of work prepared and executed) the Graduates must describe the ta=
sks
on which they have been employed, courses attended and participation in oth=
er
activities. Their
accounts should be in chronological sequence commencing from the most recent
activity, and should explain clearly their duties and responsibilities in e=
ach
position they have occupied or brief syllabus of courses attended. They sho=
uld
enlarge on any special problems which they met and on which they have obtai=
ned
more extensive experience. An indication of the size and cost of the project
involved should be given.

ir
application. These should include reports, plans, calculations, photographs=
and
other relevant information as appropriate. All these documents should be
submitted with the report (12.3.1 above). All information and documents
submitted will be treated as confidential but will not be returned.
12.3.3
Certification of Submission
All
documents submitted should be the Graduate's own work or work undertaken as a team member in w=

12.4 The
Assessment
As part of the Professio=
nal
assessment, Graduates will be required to satisfy the Board when considering
reports, submissions, specialist training, professional participation and
experience that they have demonstrated sufficient understanding of the
principles of professional engineering practice to be recommended for Elect=
ion
to be a corporate Member.
=
The
Graduate will be required to attend for a Professional Interview at the Institution=
Headquarters, or such other place as may be designated to further support t=
he
application for Election to Member. Costs involved are the Graduate's
responsibility. The essay required would be about 1500 words on a topic
selected by the interviewers as appropriate to the experience of the applic=
ant.
The essay topic would embrace management topics and the engineer in the
community.
