Gain more engineering credentials in Australia
Engineers Australia is dedicated to the development of its members.
These are just two of the credentials we offer:

National Engineering Register (NER)

Attaining the status of registered engineer is an important step in any engineers’ path.
The NER is a comprehensive directory of Australian engineers who have met the high
standards of professionalism expected within the industry. Engineers Australia created the
NER to provide engineering professionals and employers with a tool that connects talent
to opportunities.
• In the state of Queensland, there is legislation requiring Professional Engineers to
be registered (via the Board of Professional Engineers Queensland);
• Read more about NER requirements in other states and territories.

Chartered Engineer: The Measure of Excellence

Chartered Engineers demonstrate a quantifiable level of professional excellence
and experience.
The Chartered credential signals that you have a strong track record across five
or more years of experience. You are not only technically skilled - you meet the
highest standards in ethics, management and professional practice.
