Inspiring trust, integrity and excellence in engineering
EngineeringUK and the Engineering Council are proud to support Chartered Week 2025, which takes place from 24 to 28 February 2025.
Chartered Week is a new national awareness week dedicated to celebrating the positive contributions of Chartered practice. It acknowledges the people, organisations and standards that are raising levels of competence and ethics across the engineering profession.
Developed by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, Chartered Week aims to recognise the role of Chartered professionals in fostering public trust, highlight the value of Chartered status in achieving excellence and inspire others to pursue professional registration.
Chartered status is a benchmark of excellence, ethics, and positive impact. It builds trust and confidence in engineering by assuring that engineers and technicians meet recognised standards of competence and commitment.
This year the week is celebrating trusted professionals and promoting the importance of professional registration and its impact on society today. Celebrating Chartered status showcases the profession and the value of standards and integrity. It highlights the importance engineering puts on knowledge and skills and professional conduct as well as consideration of the environment and public safety. These cornerstones of professional practice help build trust and inspire future generations.
Special events held throughout the week will highlight our talented community and the registration pathways available - Chartered Engineer (CEng), Incorporated Engineer (IEng), or Engineering Technician (EngTech).
If you’re a Chartered profession, you can use the toolkit for resources and ideas to celebrate #CharteredWeek on socials. Use the hashtags, digital badges, and content to share your journey to professional registration and inspire others to follow your professional path.
If you’re not yet professionally registered, Chartered Week is the perfect time to explore the registration pathways open to you.
We’re joining with Engineering Council, Professional Engineering Institutions and employers to celebrate and support the week. We hope it create a moment for connect across the professional engineering community and join the conversation.
I encourage all professionals to join this campaign and share their experiences. The more people we can inspire to become Chartered and see it as in important moment in their career, the more we build trust with the people who rely on us.
— Alastair Revell, President of BCS
From improved employment prospects, employability and earning potential to recognition of competence, professional registration has many benefits.
