The Seminar aim was the exchange of experience between economies-members of APEC Engineers Register in regulations of engineering activity, promoting professional mobility of engineers, and development of engineering education. The Seminar was organized by the APEC Engineer Monitoring Committee of Russia and the Association for Engineering Education of Russia. The Seminar was attended by the Russian delegates (engineers, researchers, academicians and governmental officials) as well as representatives of other APEC Economies (Chinese Taipei, New Zealand, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, and Viet Nam).

The Seminar had two main topics:
