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.
Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from a recognized university or institution+ Qualifying points
Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from a recognized university or institution + at least 5 years of experience in engineering field + Qualifying points
Master’s degree in engineering + at least 3 years of experience in engineering field + Qualifying points
PhD in engineering + at least 2 years of experience in engineering field + Qualifying points
Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from a recognized university or institution + at least 10 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
Master’s degree in engineering + at least 5 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
PhD in engineering + at least 3 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
Bachelor’s Degree in engineering from a recognized university or institution + at least 15 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
Master’s degree in engineering + at least 10 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
PhD in engineering + at least 5 years of experience in engineering field+ Qualifying points
Accreditation grades are assessed based on the nature and level of engineering experience, including core experience, experience relevant to the applicant’s engineering discipline, and the level of technical and senior responsibilities. The number of years of experience alone does not determine the accreditation grade.
Kindly note that your Bachelor’s degree forms the basis of the professional accreditation process and must be verified. Any Master’s or PhD degrees in engineering will affect your professional grade and should therefore be verified alongside your Bachelor’s degree.
