IET to award Chartered Manager status to its members
The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has formed a partnership with the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), enabling it to award Chartered Manager status to its members.
The partnership means that IET members accredited as Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Incorporated Engineer (IEng) can apply for Chartered Manager (CMgr) via the IET website.
Those achieving Chartered Manager status will be able to use the post nominal 'CMgr' after their name, to reinforce recognition and professional standing.
IET chief executive Nigel Fine, pictured, said: "Through this new partnership we are delighted to be able to offer IET members a streamlined process to achieving Chartered Manager status.
"The prestigious status of Chartered Manager will provide valuable recognition for engineers who have progressed into roles with management responsibilities. Successful applicants will benefit from increased industry recognition, enhanced professional standing, as well as improved career development."
