Membership, Qualification & Education Committee (MQ&E): An Institute Committee that needs your help
14/12/2011
What does MQ&E do? Well, the answer is in the name: it manages membership applications, including overseeing Engineering Registration, it manages qualification processes, including the accreditation of BINDT-accredited training organisations, and it manages the Institute’s education initiatives. The full list of responsibilities is as follows:- Recommending standards to be adopted for admission to various grades of membership
- Assessing applications for all full membership grades
- Assessing applications for registration with the Engineering Council (UK)
- Managing the engineer registration processes
- Managing the accreditation of training bodies and education and training programmes
- Sponsoring and/or advising on training programmes
- Sponsoring and/or advising on competency tests
- Liaison with such organisations as may be appropriate in all matters concerned with education, training, examination, certification and registration
- Membership development
- Liaison with Branches.
The work that the MQ&E committee is involved in is enjoyable and rewarding but most of all it is essential to the wellbeing of the Institute. The committee is populated by volunteer members who offer their services and support to carry out these essential services; the committee meets four times a year at the
Institute’s headquarters in Northampton.
If you are interested in joining the MQ&E committee, please contact Julie Grieve at julie.grieve@bindt.org or telephone 01604 89 3829.
