Supported Registration Scheme (SRS)

SRS provides a disciplined and regular reporting framework to record your activities as you work towards professional registration.

You will be able to benchmark your progress – with the help of your mentor – against the Engineering Council's UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence (UK-SPEC) to determine when you are ready to apply for Chartered or Incorporated Engineer registration.

The records you create will also give you an invaluable resource for compiling your application – you will even be able to import content directly into the application.

You should:

• Become a member at the appropriate grade. If you are a graduate you will first need to be an Associate member. If you are an undergraduate you can register on SRS as an Affiliate member.
• Find and register an appropriate mentor 
• Fill in the registration form 
• Submit your SRS registration form

Then we: 

• Process your SRS registration form 
• Contact you to let you know how to pay the SRS application fee.
• Confirm your online access once the application fee has been paid. 

You can then use Career Developer to plan, report and review your progress toward professional registration.

Mentors on SRS are not necessarily professionally registered, but they do need to have a thorough understanding of the Engineering Council UK-SPEC competences. Anyone who meets these requirements and is willing to do so can be your mentor.

You can find a mentor in your workplace, socially or through networking at our events or regional activities.
