Chat to a Mentor

Our Mentoring service is perfectly placed to match you with someone who’ll help you make the most of your career opportunities; it’s always a plus to have invaluable insight from someone who’s been through the Professional Registration process before.

We’re upgrading our systems, and this includes changes to our customer and member account log in, MyIET. It’s part of our big picture plan to deliver a great experience for you and our wider engineering community.
