Member Assessment

Member assessment is a combined assessment of your qualifications and experience; aimed at non-members of ICE who are experienced engineers. Learn more about this route and whether or not it's right for you.

This is a combined assessment of your qualifications and experience. It will let you know if you are ready to apply for a Professional Review at your preferred grade and, if not, what other options you have.

It’s for non-members of ICE who are experienced engineers and would like to apply for a Professional Review at chartered (CEng) or incorporated engineer (IEng) level.

When you apply, you’ll need to send us a number of documents, so we can assess your academic qualifications and professional experience.

Whatever the result, after the assessment you’ll automatically become an ICE graduate member.
