The Engineering Council (EC) is the UK regulatory body for the engineering profession. Its Engineering Accreditation Board (AB) is made up of all the professional engineering institutions that are licensed by the Engineering Council to accredit academic programs for both Chartered Engineer and Incorporated Engineer status. The aim of EAB is to encourage consistent accreditation processes and practices as well as to provide a single point of contact to facilitate joint accreditation visits, where appropriate, for member PEIs. The Engineering Council sets and maintains the internationally

The Australian Engineering Accreditation Centre (AEAC) evaluates engineering programs at the levels of Professional Engineer, Engineering Technologist, and Engineering Associate. Competency Standards are published as a foundation reference for part of the assessment process and set out the generic competencies deemed to be essential for an individual to commence practice in the appropriate occupational category. The standards cover knowledge, skills and engineering application abilities as well as professional skills, values and attitudes, and provide detailed indicators of attainment for each
