In a rapidly changing world where legislative, social and economic developments directly affect the environment in which we live and work, and where technological advancements provide radically different ways of working, Continuing Professional Development (CPD) provides means whereby we can keep abreast of these changes, broaden our skills and be more effective in our professional work.
Pakistan Engineering Council under its Act has a mandate for introducing and ensuring continued professional development activities amongst its growing community of engineers. The council has devised a comprehensive framework titled “Professional Development of Engineers (Bye-Laws – 2008)” approved by the Government of Pakistan.
The main objective is to develop competence and ability of engineers for the application of theoretical knowledge to practical situations and to evolve innovative solutions to real-life problems while adhering to professional ethics and acquisition of a broader understating of their obligations to society.
