TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT Pathways to registration
Standard and non-standard routes
A
s part of the admissions process when becoming a member of IHEEM,
individuals may be given a recommendation regarding their suitability for registered status. Should applicants wish to pursue this path, the Institute also supports candidates in the application process for registration. The two routes to registration - standard
and non-standard, also referred to as 'individual', exist to provide an accessible and equitable process for individuals regardless of the way in which they have progressed through their career and gained experience. The guide (right) outlines the key differences and standards required to pursue registration, dependent on individual professional context.
STANDARD ROUTE
The Standard route to registration is taken on the basis of having achieved required learning outcomes through recognised qualifications:
EngTech - Level 3 qualification as part of an approved apprenticeship scheme
IEng - an accredited Bachelor's degree CEng - an accredited integrated Master's degree or combination of accredited Bachelor's and Master's degrees
NON- STANDARD ROUTE
A non-standard route to registration is based on individual assessment, and allows for full inclusivity in the registration process. Specific qualifications and any additional learning or experience will be considered, such as:
Formal academic programmes In-employment training Experiential learning Self-directed learning
Applicants may also be asked to write a technical report or attend a technical interview.

A ADAM TAYLOR
dam Taylor AMIHEEM, EngTech, Cert IBO is an Engineering Officer with Serco. His career spans over 15 years - from work
as a plumber to now working on a team of seven specialist Engineering Officers operating as service-providers to an NHS Trust. He explained that a change of employment gave him greater confidence in his work, and he sought out Professional Registration to receive the recognition he felt he deserved.
Problem solving has always been at the forefront of Adam’s roles and enjoyment thereof, and working in an acute medical hospital, he
is required to exercise a fine balance between efficient, rapid response strategy, and a mindful, understanding approach with the Trust. As well as a marker of value to his leadership and peers, Adam believes that as an NHS service-provider, Professional Registration gives his Trust the confidence that he will provide a ‘good, professional, [and] robust service, applying the right principles to ensure continuity of the hospital’. Both in his working day and his career, Adam is proud to work for the NHS, with whom he hopes to continue his working relationship
long into the future. He encourages those considering pursuing Professional Registration to do so, advising, ‘See it as a way of making the next step in your career; once your engineering principles are recognised it could open doors to a promotion or a job change’.
