The International Engineering Alliance is a global not-for-profit organisation, which comprises members from 41 jurisdictions within 29 countries, across seven international agreements. These international agreements govern the recognition of engineering educational qualifications and professional competence.
Through the Educational Accords and Competence Agreements, members of the International Engineering Alliance establish and enforce internationally bench-marked standards for engineering education and expected competence for engineering practice. These annual business meetings of the IEA have occurred online in 2020, 2021 and again in 2022. The participation at the workshops in Killarney is an opportunity to reconnect with IEA members and help progress its work.
