The Audience • Envisaged as an early career professional qualification for those in a technical or non managerial role • Apprentices are a key constituency • Will encompass an international audience • Seamless progression routes to enable movement towards chartership for those progressing their qualifications/careers 11
What would the pathway look like? • Would require a qualifying award – a sub degree qualification • Would include an assessment of relevant competencies and professional behaviours at a technical level • Would include post nominals • Strict conditions of entry to ensure that it does not overlap/compete with chartered membership through prescribing the qualifying awards and experience • Holds candidates to rules and regulations of professional conduct 12
