Route 3:
Mature Candidate Route to Membership. In exceptional cases a person who does not hold a recognised engineering qualification may be admitted to the Grade of Member. In order to do this the candidate must satisfy the Council that he/she has by experience, or by other means gained the theoretical knowledge that is expected of an Engineer and is also carrying out the work of an Engineer.
