Our Professionally Registered engineers and technicians, took full advantage of Career Manager on their journeys to Professional Registration:

“Career Manager is very user-friendly and allowed me to complete my application at my own pace” – Rachel Evans IEng MIET

“I found the application process straightforward thanks to IET’s Career Manager” – Thathsara Nanayakkara CEng MIET

“Career Manager makes the application process so much more accessible… During my application, I was diagnosed with ADHD and Dyslexia and being able to break it down into small chunks helped me make good use of my hyperfocus!” – Helen Cumming CEng MIET

IET Members get full access to all the tool’s features, and you can use it to:

  • Build a master CV to be ready to your next job opportunity
  • Plan and record all your CPD activities.
  • Receive competence development support
  • Make your Professional Registration application

Career Manager’s features make the process of maintaining your CPD quick and easy.

How does it work?

Easy to use and mobile-responsive, Career Manager provides quick access to your information from a mobile device or your desktop computer.

Among the features is the ability to add a new CPD activity straight from the Career Manager home screen, so you can capture it quickly as you think of it with minimal information and go back to it at your leisure to add more detail and reflection.

Another of Career Manager’s CPD features, the CPD declaration dashboard (accessible upon CPD declaration submission) lets you view key data from your CPD declarations in one place, including total hours completed each year, activity types etc.

The dashboard also allows you to compare your CPD activity against previous years so you can see how your CPD is improving each year, and how it compares to the averages of other IET members.

This enhanced insight can help you achieve great things by allowing you to benchmark your CPD activity against other professional engineers and technicians.

And as well as Professional Registration, as you progress through your career you can also apply for Fellowship through Career Manager!
