What does the amended Engineers Act says(1) Amendment to Section 4 (Functions of the Board) of the Act;Section 4(1)The functions of the Board shall be –(ee)(ed)(ii)to appoint a committee consisting of persons to bedetermined by the Board, to conduct the ProfessionalCompetency Examination for the purpose of issuing aPractising Certificate to Professional Engineers.ExplanationIntroduction of the 2nd. tier registration of Professional Engineersthrough the Professional Competency Examination (PCE). Theexamination to be conducted by the BEM who will then issue a“license” the Practising CertificateThe function of the BEM has expanded to cover “licensing” .
What does the amended Engineers Act says(2) Amendment to Section 10 (Qualifications for registration) of the Act;Section 10(D) (1) Subject to the provisions of this Act, any person who–is a registered Professional Engineer(b)(c)has passed a Professional Competency Examinationconducted by the Board; andhas complied with all the requirements of the Board;shall be entitled on application to be registered as aProfessional Engineer with a Practising CertificateExplanationProfessional engineers who wish to set-up an Engineering ConsultancyPractice (ECP) under Section 7A or 7B and supply professional engineeringservices must sit and passed the Professional Competency Examination(PCE) and registered with BEM as a Professional Engineer with a valid‘license’ i.e. the “Practising Certificate”.These fundamental amendments allow BEM to issue a “license” .

Professional Engineers’ LicensingWhat are the requirements of other countries . .
P.E. LICENSING IN AUSTRALIAThere is no Engineers Act, self-regulation is the norm.The body that registers engineer is the National Professional EngineersRegister Board (NPER). They have adopted the Australian EngineeringCompetency Standards as the basis for registering independentpractitioners which consist of;Stage 1is the level of competency achieved on completion of aneducational qualification accredited or recognized byEngineers Australia for entry to the profession.Stage 2competencies relevant to a field of engineering and anoccupational category. Consist of two parts;Part A – sets out the competencies required of anengineering practitionerPart B – sets out the standards to which the competenciesmust be demonstratedUse by the local authorities to recognize the “qualified person” .
P.E. LICENSING IN CANADAEngineering profession is regulated in accordance with theEngineers Act. However each territory or state (Ontario, Manitobaetc.) requires the practitioner to register separately.In the state of Ontario the profession is regulated by Professional EngineersOntario (PEO) requires the following before granting a license;*satisfy the academic requirements set out by PEO*satisfy the experience requirements set out by PEO*pass the Professional Practice Examination (PPE) on engineeringethics and lawThe designation of “consulting engineer” is also regulated by law whichrequires an applicant to have;A minimum of five years of post-registration experience. This to ensure thatin addition to technical experience, the applicant has acquired satisfactoryexposure to the business aspects of consulting.The word “consulting engineer” in Canada is regulated .
P.E. LICENSING IN SINGAPOREThe engineering profession is regulated by the ProfessionalEngineers Board (PEB). They essentially register professionalengineers in the building and construction industry.The requirements to be registered as a professional engineer are;*pass the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination (FEE) which can beundertaken upon graduation.*pass the Practice of Professional Engineering Examination (PPE) and inaddition attend and pass the Professional Interview.The FEE tests the candidate on his technical capabilities whilst the PPE testhim on the rules, regulations, practice and laws in Singapore. The PPE willfocus on the Professional Engineers Act, Code of Conduct & Ethics,Engineers Rules and references to past disciplinary actions taken by theBoard. PEB does not register Graduate Engineers.BEM has studied in detail this examination system .
P.E. LICENSING IN TAIWANLicensing is by the Ministry of Examination through the SeniorQualification Examination (SQE).The requirements to be registered as a professional engineer are;*Recognized undergraduate degree*The SQE are mechanics of material, theory of structures, r.c. andprecast concrete design, structural steel design, soil mechanics &foundation design, structural dynamics & earthquake design & Chineselanguage, charter and law.Historically, passing rate for the SQE has been very low. 3% for 30 years ago.Today, it is between 15% to 20%.On passing the SQE, the candidate has to submit an application to theMinistry of Economic Affairs for a license. With the license he has to join theProfessional Structural Engineers Association in the region which he wishesto practice.“ . and all documents and drawings related to work undertaken in Taiwanmust use Chinese as the primary language.”
P.E. LICENSING IN UNITED KINGDOMThere is no Engineers Act, self-regulation is the norm.The body that registers professional engineer is Engineering Council (UK). Abody such as the Institution of Civil Engineers or Mechanical Engineersprovides the means by which a candidate can obtained a CharteredEngineers status i.e. a professional engineer.Chartered Engineers are master’s degree qualified and have gainedprofessional competencies through training and experience. A typicalqualification requirement is as follows;*Four years mater course or three years with honours*Academic and internship/apprenticeship/graduate training*Peer reviewed professional practiceThe process of becoming a Chartered Engineer takes 8-12 years. The title“Chartered Engineer” is protected by civil law but the practice ofengineering has no legal restrictions in the UK.The most recognizable professional engineer’s qualification
P.E. LICENSING IN USAEngineers in practice are required by law to be licensed as a P.E. inthe State which they wish to practice.Licensed engineers carry the distinguished designation “professionalengineer” or P.E. In general to obtain a license there is a four step process;*Undergraduate degree from ABET accredited engineering program.*Pass the first exam, the Fundamentals of Engineering which tests theapplicant on the breath of understanding of basic engineeringprinciples.*Gain engineering experience, under the supervision of a P.E. whichtakes about 4 years.*Pass the second exam, the Principles and Practice of Engineeringwhich test the candidate’s knowledge & skills as well as engineeringethics.The process is all by examination there is no interview.However in the USA there are 50 states requiring 50 licenses
