Currently looking into a number of things associated with the potential move to Australia, one of which is having my skills assessed by Engineers Australia.
I have a BEng (Hons) in Building Services Engineering but do not currently have professional status; although, it should be sorted by April/May 2010. EA have already advised that because my role is mechanical desgin engineer of HVAC / PH systems I will likely be given the ASCO code of Mechanical Engineer, which is great because it's on the MODL.
I guess that with me not having professional status yet I have an option of having skills assessed through the Sydney Accord or completing a CDR. In essence I want to get the visa application in asap but am not sure whether to hang out for professional status in the UK before doing so.
Have any other engineers out there, preferably in the same or similar discipline, gone through the process with EA and did you go through the Washington Accord, Sydney Accord or complete a CDR for assessment?
Would be great to hear your thoughts on the process.
