I fully support the EIDA letter. The proposal to register Engineers is well meaning but ignores the fact that many industrial engineers have brains that are very practical and very conceptual but are not wired to succeed in academic settings. Some of the best are likely on the spectrum. Many of the world leading innovations in industrial engineering have been developed by these people.
The proposal to register engineers is actually discriminatory rather than inclusive.
Fine-tech Electronic Soultions Pty Ltd have been providing Engineering services into the SA market for the last 29 years and regard this proposal as a further layer of the money-making bureaucracy of the SA Government, as well as an infringement of personal information and the safety of the engineers we employ.
We do not support the proposed registration of Engineers providing engineering services.
I am an Engineering manager at Robway safety, and I do not support registration of Engineers providing engineering service. Engineering and development services starts with an idea and registration needs will not allow an ideas to flourish.
I went to Adelaide show ground and 14-year-old high school student made oscilloscope using video and literature available. Registration needs will prevent such potential future candidate in industry from getting employed in different capacity. This scheme will create chicken first or egg first situation for industry and future job applicants too.
Rather than future engineering graduates (either doing engineering degrees or high school graduates willing to study engineering) work for making burgers and pizza. I would like them to work in an engineering company getting experience and bring innovative ideas at early start of their career.
Rather than engineering graduates getting bogged down by another layer of registration after university degree, I would like them to work for engineering firm straight after university or during university.
I have never heard of such Hogg wash in all my time as an engineer, I don’t need some government numties to tell me I am not a qualified engineer because I am not registered. I am an engineer and can call my self an engineer because I have 2 technical Degrees, an engineering apprenticeship and 40 years experience. This is the old 1950s colonial Australia mentality, who ever thought this up is old, very old, 1970s old and should retire and let us get on with our work and not be distracted by this rubbish.
