  • Best Practice in Engineering Programme Accreditation
    A document on Best Practice in Engineering Programme Accreditation was jointly adopted and published in July 2015 by the European Network for Accreditation of Engineering Education (ENAEE) and the Washington, Sydney and Dublin Accords, the constituent educational agreements within the International Engineering Alliance (IEA). This is a significant achievement as it represents the agreement and common understanding of best practice in engineering accreditation by the 30 countries/accreditation agencies involved in the two organisations worldwide. The elements of best practice in the document are those that have been found to ensure best functioning of accreditation systems. Such peer review accreditation systems are in turn major contributors to the development of high quality engineering education. The document is intended for use as follows: • Bodies setting up as accreditation agencies, or operating or improving engineering education accreditation systems will be guided by these elements. • Bodies facilitating recognition of accredited engineering BEST programmes, such as ENAEE and the IEA Accords, which develop and are guided by best practice in defining, operating PRACTICE IN and improving policy, processes and accreditation criteria. The document does not impact directly on education providers but rather helps to shape the accreditation system that each provider experiences: ENGINEERING • The best practice described assumes particular relation- ships between the programme providers and the accred­­ iting agency. PROGRAMME • The provider designs and executes a programme to satisfy a stated purpose. • Execution involves resourcing and conducting a teaching ACCREDITATION and learning process, including assessment of students. ENAEE and the IEA Accords are committed to best practice in Programme design is informed by the standards and other the accreditation of engineering programmes and have given accreditation criteria laid down by the accrediting agency.

  • A Review of Engineering Technician Education in Australia
    AC 2011-2740: A REVIEW OF ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN EDUCA- TION IN AUSTRALIA: David Dowling, University of Southern Queensland Professor David Dowling is passionate about helping engineering students learn and achieve their ca- reer goals. As Professor of Engineering Education at the University of Southern Queensland (USQ) his research and development activities are focused on enhancing curricula, and teaching and learning envi- ronments. Professor Dowling was Associate Dean (Learning and Teaching) from 1995 to until January 2009. He was a President of the Australasian Association for Engineering Education in 2005-2006, and was awarded an Australian Learning and Teaching Council (ALTC) Citation in 2008. David was the lead author of the recently published first year text: Engineering Your Future: An Australasian Guide. Professor Dowling is currently leading two major research projects: A study of engineering technician education in Australia, which was funded by a USQ Senior Fellowship; and The Define Your Discipline Project, an ALTC funded project that aims to develop a process that can be used by a discipline to de- velop detailed graduate outcomes for that discipline. During 2010 the project team has been working with industry and university stakeholders across Australia to develop a national set of graduate outcomes for environmental engineering programs. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2011 A review of engineering technician education in Australia: Programs, pathways and perspectives Introduction The Dublin Accord1,2,3 is an international agreement that defines the educational base for Engineering Technicians and is used for the recognition of equivalence of those qualifications. Under the agreement, the qualifications that have been accredited by one of the national organizations that is a signatory to the Accord are recognized by each signatory organization as being substantially equivalent to the accredited qualifications within its own jurisdiction.

  • Malaysia and the Washington Accord: What It Takes for Full Membership
    International Journal of Engineering and Technology, Vol. 1, No. 1, 2004, pp. 64 - 73 64 MALAYSIA AND THE WASHINGTON ACCORD: WHAT IT TAKES FOR FULL MEMBERSHIP H. Basri1, A. B. Che Man2, W. H. Wan Badaruzzaman3 and M. J. M. Nor3 1Chairman, Malaysian Council of Engineering Deans / Dean of Engineering, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia 2Chairman, Engineering Accreditation Council of Malaysia, 3Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT In 2003, Malaysia was admitted to the Washington Accord as a provisional signatory nation alongside Germany and Singapore. This development has been described as “significant in the history of the Washington Accord” [1] since it implied that these nations have demonstrated that their accreditation systems are conceptually similar to those of the full signatory members with respect to quality assurance in their engineering education programmes. In this paper, the authors will highlight the significance and implications of the Washington Accord agreement with special reference to developing countries. The paper will also document experiences of an engineering faculty in Malaysia and the Engineering Accreditation Council (EAC) of Malaysia in meeting the requirements of the Washington Accord sponsors and mentors. In particular, efforts by the Engineering Faculty of Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (National University of Malaysia) in introducing elements of Outcome-Based Education as a key requirement for full membership of the Accord will be presented. Key words: Washington Accord, Accreditation System, Quality Assurance, Engineering Education THE WASHINGTON ACCORD The Washington Accord is a multinational agreement which recognizes the substantial equivalency of engineering degree programmes accredited by the responsible bodies in each of the current signatory countries.

  • The International Engineering Alliance (IEA) Is a Global Non-Profit Organisation Which Comprises of Members and Signatories from 36 Jurisdictions Within 28 Countries
    INTERNATIONAL REGISTER What is an International Register? The International Engineering Alliance (IEA) is a global non-profit organisation which comprises of members and signatories from 36 jurisdictions within 28 countries. The IEA seeks to improve engineering education and competence globally. It fulfils this mission through its constituents: education agreements that are concerned with standards, best practice accreditation processes and mutual recognition of accredited engineering programmes and agreements for defining and recognising professional competence. The Engineering Council of South Africa (ECSA) is a member of the IEA. ECSA maintains international registers for Engineers, Technologists and Technicians. These registers are regulated by three competency agreements namely; International Professional Engineers Agreements (IPEA), International Engineering Technologists Agreement (IETA) and Agreement International Engineering Technicians (AIET). The engineering qualifications are governed by the Washington Accord, Sydney Accord and Dublin Accord for Engineers, Technologists and Technicians respectively. Each member of IEA keeps their own section of the international register within their Jurisdiction. If you are registered in the international register section of South Africa, registrants are entailed to use the following postnominal: International Professional Engineer -Int PE (SA) International Engineering Technologist – Int ET (SA) International Engineering Technician – Int ETn (SA) https://www.ecsa.co.za/EcsaDocuments/sitepages/ecsa%20documents.aspx#IntReg MEA Who should be in this International Register? The international register is open to anyone who meets the Competency Agreement requirements as per International Engineering Alliance’s rules and procedures. What are the benefits of being on the International Register? Joining an international register means your competence as an Engineer, Technologist and Technician is recognised in line with the international standard.
