Main » Certification » Introduction

Engineering in Russia faces a number of challenges that have to be addressed to retain the best Russian engineering traditions. Nowadays there is no federal law concerning professional qualifications in engineering. It is an issue for a company to develop and maintain an internal qualification framework. There is no consistency among these regulations throughout the country.

The AEER initiated development of a national certification and registration system based on the best international practices in certification of professional engineers and the requirements of the IEA Graduate Attributes and Professional Competences. The Association involves major stakeholders in discussion of the issue: the State Duma (the national legislative body), the Government of the Russian Federation, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation, the Russian Union of Scientific and Public Organizations, engineering universities and companies. Representatives of the Government encourage the initiative since the national system for certification and registration of professional engineers is planned to be a part of the National System of Competencies and Qualifications (NSCQ) that is being developed by the Agency of Strategic Initiatives.
