In addition, the Committee formulated criteria for accrediting product design degrees for membership, and members also contributed to an ECuk working group on foundation degrees and actively contributed to the Engineering Accreditation Board.

The engineers were then welcomed by Nick, and Lt Cdr Lee, to enter SOE membership to continue their professional development, ensuring their training is recognised and appreciated by ECUK and, therefore, both inside and outside of the Royal Navy.

The ECUK said that engineers should follow the guidance because they are the only ones who can solve the challenges of the future.

A licensed member of ECUK, it can register members at all three levels, CEng, IEng and EngTech.

Andrew Ramsay, Chief Executive Officer of ECUK said: "We see the introduction of the NAS as a very positive step, which will undoubtedly open the door for more people of all ages to enter the engineering profession.

Professor Kel Fidler, Chairman of ECUK, said: "Professional engineers have a significant role to play in sustainability and should be the providers of options and solutions to maximise social value and minimise environmental impact.

The ECUK said the report confirmed that engineering was more geographically diverse than other major professions, reflecting its importance as a contributor to the economy.

"ECUK has established excellent working relationships with the engineering institutions and has high credibility internationally and with Government agencies."

The Engineering Council UK (ECUK) has released a publication entitled 'Guidance on Sustainability for the Engineering Profession'.

The Engineering Council UK (ECUK), which maintains the national register of chartered engineers, has seen a surge of professionals enquiring about registration, as the economic climate tightens the job market.
