better how Interim CEng can work for you below.
How Interim registration can help you attain the
Chartered status?
As a CEng hopeful, you should first aim at Interim
registration. The reason is it can take you to the Chartered status pathway. Interim registration
can be helpful for you if you have acquired an acceptable qualification for
Chartered Engineer registration but do not have sufficient experience in the
workplace to fulfill all of the UK-SPEC criteria.

indicative), then your application for full Chartered Engineers status will be
free from any obstacles.

branch network and special interest groups
You can benefit from online CPD tracking

which includes sector vacancies

You will benefit from local international CPD
events

online access to achieved publications
How to Apply?
The assessment criteria for Interim Chartered
Engineer also fulfill the requirements for Associate grade membership of the
IFE. In other words, you can apply for Interim CEng registration and Associate
(AIFireE) using a single application.
To be kept in mind:
if you want to become Interim registered as a
Chartered Engineer or Incorporated Engineer, then you should apply for this
instead of applying for Associate alone. A successful Interim application will
achieve Associate membership automatically. Therefore, an Associate application
doesn’t need to be made.
If you live outside the United Kingdom, then you
should contact your local branch (if available) first, especially if you prefer
to pay in local currency. If no local branch is available, then you prefer to
deal with IFE directly.
Application requirements:

- An
accredited MEng degree
- An
accredited bachelor’s degree with honors in engineering together with an
approved or accredited master’s degree or accredited further learning to

approved by the Engineering Council.
The Institution of Fire Engineers (IFE) finds both
experience and academic qualifications valuable.

you don’t fulfill the academic qualification requirements but can prove that
you have the same level of knowledge and understanding.

Route Panel will make a recommendation and inform you about any extra proof
necessary.
