What is Professional Registration?
Registration sets a professional engineer/technician apart from those who are not registered. Professional registration identifies you as a highly skilled ICT professional with advanced technical knowledge and competence. Once you have gained professional registration you may use letters after your name to identify yourself as an industry leading professional e.g. S Jones ICTTech, MITP.
Professional registration is therefore an important career milestone for engineers and technicians in the ICT industry. It shows that you are a competent professional, whose skills and knowledge is highly valued by industry peers.
Professional registration allows you to plan your continuous professional development (CPD) with real structure and direction. It can enhance career prospects; provide higher earning potential and greater status and influence. So apply now for professional registration.
