order, all their engineering
employment after graduation,
stating the precise title of post
held, with specific durations
including dates;
b. Make an assessment of their time
utilisation within each organisation
as a percentage of time spent on
i. Engineering Design,
ii. Engineering functions
of their own discipline,
iii. Allied engineering
discipline,
iv. Administrative and
other functions.
(Kindly refer to the CRPE
Standard for Professional
Engineering Competence for more
details on the matter)

Chapter 2
The Training Environment
The candidates are required in this chapter
describe:
a. the nature of the engineering
environment to which the
candidates were exposed;

b. the complexity of the activities or
operations of the training firm or
organisation;
c. the professional competence or
standard of the persons with
whom the candidates worked. The
applicants shall name their
supervising engineers and state
their engineering qualifications
and registration number.
Exceptionally, the Council may
accept distant supervision,
provided that it was advised of the
distant supervision arrangement
and had agreed to the
arrangement (Kindly refer to the
CRPE Standard for Professional
Engineering Competence for more
details on the matter);
d. the organisational structure of the
training organisation with
emphasis on the division and area
where the candidates worked, or
were trained, showing levels of
responsibility and authority and
numbers of persons involved.

Chapter 3
The Nature of Training Received
a. Candidates are required in this
chapter to show their initiation into
the activities of the organisation;
b. The applicants shall include in this
chapter a list of all the projects on
which training has been received
during the training period, with
cost estimates and duration of the
project (wherever applicable);
c. They must display awareness,
familiarity with and appreciation of
the engineering activities involved
in the projects in which they were
involved.
d. Applicants must demonstrate their
understanding and application of
basic engineering principles and
laws of physics through the
selection of certain activities,
operations, systems, plant and
machinery and the reporting on
their engineering features, with
the help of drawings, sketches,
schematics or block diagrams,
etc;
e. The candidates will be expected
to be very familiar with technical
terms, including units and
dimensions as applicable to
his/her discipline.

Chapter 4
The Trainees own contribution /
involvement in engineering
Council expects Trainee Engineers not to
remain as silent spectators of their
supervisor. The candidate should
demonstrate in this chapter that they have
been actively involved in the engineering that
goes on in their environment and to that
effect they have:
a. contributed to the design activities
being undertaken by their office
colleagues or seniors (all design
calculations are to be hand-written
and worked out from first
principles. These are to be
included in the technical report,
though a computer-generated
output may be submitted as a
support and confirmation of the
results of calculations);
b. monitored engineering quality,
efficiency and productivity at
various levels (namely planning,
procurement, installation,
execution, maintenance,
improvement, etc.)


P

c. made proposals and submitted
reports or comments on
engineering aspects and problem
solving to seniors;
d. been able, where authorised, to
bring in significant improvement to
their engineering environment,
which was measurable either
through cost monitoring, quality of
product, impact upon environment
etc.

Council expects that the candidates will
demonstrate their involvement on the various
projects by reference to data tables,
statistics, charts, engineering formula and/or
specifications, diagrams, schematic etc.

Chapter 5
Analytical Tools
The Engineering process almost always end
up in a decision being taken and such
decisions can have as basis the engineers
assessment of the probability of occurrence
of some events, and the relation between
certain events and their time of occurrences,
and their time of appraisal of investments
over machinery, payback periods, etc, etc.

It is expected therefore that the candidates
for registration demonstrate that they are
familiar with techniques that are utilised in
the decision process, and know at least a
particular technique and its applications.

Candidates should develop awareness of the
use of computers within their own branch of
engineering and in particular the use of
application software in their day to day work.

This chapter on Analytical Tools may not
necessarily be a chapter on its own. It can
be an Appendix to the Report and consist of
a collection of formula, techniques, etc which
are better located here than in chapter 3 and
4.

Chapter 6
Conclusion
A concluding chapter, where the applicant is
expected to tell about his own perception of
his training period, as well as any short-
comings therein, any anticipated fields of
improvement, etc.

Note1 Each page of the report MUST be initialled
by the Supervisor. The Supervisor shall be
a registered Professional Engineer, qualified
in the applicants field of expertise and with
at least 4 years of qualified Post-
Registration experience in engineering.

Note 2 Each applicant shall submit one original and
two copies of his / her technical report and
his / her training log-book along with the
application for registration.

Note 3 Council encourages applicants to include
their own drawings in their report. Council
will NOT accept any drawings which have
been drafted for a purpose other than the
registration report, unless specific
permission from the owner(s) of the
drawings are included as part of the report.

Chapter 7
Summary of Competences
A last chapter of the report shall be a
summary of the competences claimed in the
training report, indexed with the core
competences required in the CRPE
Standard for Professional Engineering
Competence

The format of the competences claimed is
included in the next section. The Summary
of Competences is indexed to the
candidates assessment sheets, available for
