How does the registration process work?

If you are already an IET member please email your CV to registration@theitp.org, then a registration advisor will contact you to discuss your application.

Professional Registration is assessed on two levels - evidence of both competence and underpinning knowledge & understanding. As such a formal educational qualification may not always be necessary as applicants may be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding in alternative ways.
