WHAT IS PROFESSIONAL ACCREDITATION?

Overview

The Engineering Professional Accreditation system is basically a classification system through which the society aims to bring up the engineering expertise to high professional levels to ensure sustained excellence in engineering practices in the Sultanate. The classification system helps companies and organizations in assessing the levels and expertise of the engineers, thus maximize utilization of their capabilities and abilities. It also prevents forged engineering practices hence ensures the integrity and suitability of these engineering projects in the Sultanate.

Through the Professional Accreditation System,  we first verify the academic qualifications of the engineers through prime source verification partners . Then, we evaluate their capacities, experience and levels of professionalism and classify them accordingly into different professional grades (Engineer, Associate Engineer, Professional Engineer, Consultant Engineer) each has its specific duties and responsibilities.
