To all that can be of some assistance,
I just wondered if there was anyone on this forum at the moment working towards or is of chartered engineer status (there are very few around in scaffolding as I am sure you are all aware) as a 'scaffold desinger' / 'temporary works' engineer who can help in the process.
A little background to me: -
I have been working in the scaffold design sector for almost 7 years now. Currently a manager at scaffold designs limited in sheffield and studying part time. I have recently completed my BSc and am currently in my first year of the Masters Degree at Leeds University. I have another 2 years left and it is taking its toll after 9 years of part time study to get this far and am sick to death of seeing differential to the 6th order
Is anyone else in this position or been in this position who is aware of a quicker way to chartership other than the masters route? The CPD route is not possible at my age as you can only get chartership by 'experience' and report route I believe at 35 years old. The ICE and IStructE are extremely difficult to get chartered in unless you have experience in permanenet works design and/or worked on site for a period of time as it will be impossible to get through the chartered professional review and exam.
I don't believe there are any other ways as all of the institutes run through the Engineering Council but someone may know a way and would love to know if there is.
Any assistance in this area would be appreciated.
