Professional Engineers Registration (Victoria)
The Victorian Government has also introduced the Professional Engineers Registration Act 2019 from 1 July 2021, requiring Councils to undertake due diligence reviews of their operations to ensure compliance with the new Act.
Registration will be required for those Engineers who engage in “professional engineering services” and provides an important consumer-protection initiative that will give individuals and organisations confidence and assurance that the people they hire are properly trained and experienced and are maintaining their skills.
Associate Professional Engineers providing engineering opinion or advice will have to be registered from October 2022, so preparation needs to commence now in your transition to registration.
