From 24-28 February 2025, National Chartered Week celebrates the professionals, organisations, and registrations that uphold the highest standards of competence and ethics across various industries. This year’s theme, "Celebrating Trusted Professionals" highlights the dedication of Chartered individuals whose expertise and commitment inspire public confidence in their respective fields.
As a Chartered Institution, CIBSE plays a vital role in maintaining and advancing professional standards within the building services engineering sector. Through our professional registration pathways, we provide engineers with the opportunity to gain Chartered Engineer (CEng), Incorporated Engineer (IEng), or Engineering Technician (EngTech) status - formal recognition of their expertise, knowledge and commitment to ethical practice.
Why professional registration matters
Becoming professionally registered brings numerous benefits to both individuals and society:
- Credibility and Trust – Chartered professionals demonstrate a proven level of competence, reassuring clients, employers and the public of their skills and ethical responsibility.
- Career Growth and progression – Professional registration is widely recognised as a mark of achievement, opening doors to leadership roles, greater responsibilities and increased career opportunities.
- Formal recognition – Gaining Chartered status is a testament to an engineer’s qualifications and expertise, distinguishing them within their profession.
- Public and professional protection – By adhering to a recognised professional code of conduct, Chartered professionals contribute to safer, more efficient, and sustainable built environments.
