    Read my other posts psychobiker. Anyone can come up with an idea.

    I like how you’re quick to judge that I may not be a very good engineer, but woe betide me for wanting to demonstrate and be recognised for the time I’ve served, both professionally and academically.
    I think it’s incredible the number of selfless individuals on here who are happy to be considered equal to someone in the same trade with less knowledge or experience… That, to me, smacks of a lack of self belief and ambition.

    I’ve not mentioned a need for qualifications, only qualification of the term, and the Institute of Engineers awards chartership for pure experience, or combined experience and qualifications.

    Many of the responses on this thread show exactly the ignorance of what a professional engineer is and does which prompted my initial comment. Thanks for the supporting evidence.

    For the record, I don’t need to do any willy waving, and also for the record I’m not chartered.

    I believe a train engineer is a proper engineer Captjon…

    I think you will find that has been reclassed as a ‘milk dispensing technicians’ cheggers!
    clearly not a ‘thinking’ type role.

    For my part I am a Bench Joiner

    That’s a great skill.

    Often, I’ve had two small benches and thought, “what I really need here is one big bench.”

    No one knows what CEng means, so it’s only really for personal reasons that you’d get it (although it’s respected in industry, so is worth it in that sense, but it’s not like calling yourself Dr).

    I’m not sure anyone in Industry is really that bothered by CEng either – never applied myself and I don’t know anyone where I work who has either. NB This is in telecoms R&D.

    Typical STW, a thread degenerates into pedantry and snobbery.

    Anyway, back to more serious matters…does it actually bring loads of fit Spanish women to your front door?

    Cougar – Microsoft went through the whole MCTS / MCITP malarkey because Engineer is a reserved title ( I think it was Canada who kicked up a stink about it) in many countries – my German colleagues were inordinately impressed I did engineering at uni, whilst my English colleagues thinks this means I can fix their TV.

    Now they’ve just rejigged the E to Expert, created the MS Certified Solutions Expert and we’re back to where we started …

    If I have a degree in Engineering am I an Engineer?

    For me you should be chartered OR wear a top hat, splendid facial hair and build beam engines one week and F*** off big railway bridges the next, but there are no rules in the UK that I know of.
