This is an introduction to the application by Professional Engineers of the Performance Protocol, developed and implemented as part of the PPIR (Professional Performance Innovation and Risk) Program by the Warren Centre for Advanced Engineering.

Engineers Australia argues that enhanced investment in economic infrastructure is long overdue and welcomes the opportunity to respond to the Australian Government’s discussion paper “Using value capture to help deliver major land transport infrastructure: roles for the Australian Government”.

Engineers Australia welcomes the NSW Government’s work in establishing a better regulatory model for building certification through the Government’s implementation of the findings from the Lambert Review, and from those recommendations the changes to the abovementioned regulations.

Engineers Australia's pre-budget submission for the 2017-18 federal budget.

This document updates previous climate change guidelines prepared by the National Committee on Coastal and Ocean Engineering and is designed to complement the coastal engineering guidelines for ecologically sustainable development and the climate change adaptation guidelines in coastal management and planning.

These guidelines have been developed by the National Committee on Coastal and Ocean Engineering. Following on from Guidelines for Responding to the Effects of Climate Change in Coastal and Ocean Engineering this publication aims at broader considerations regarding engineering in the coastal zone

Engineers Australia's insights for 2017, specifically the change required to realise the country’s political, social and economic aspirations.

A transition plan should consider all options, and transforming Australia’s electricity generation is not a matter of choosing just one technology for the future. It is using a combination of existing and emerging technologies, in a structural policy environment consistent with emissions reductions and meeting the demand for electricity. A secure energy future will be reliant on these policy approaches being successfully deployed.

Engineers Australian examines the need for an engineering pipeline strategy. 

The purpose of this project was to investigate, identify and assess the barriers confronting women in engineering in order to find ways to redress the underrepresentation of women in the profession. This was completed as a partnership with Engineers Australia and Monash University as part of the Monash Industry Team Initiative (MITI) project.

Engineers Australia welcomes the development of the protocol and we further welcome the direction that the VBA is taking insofar as establishing frameworks and guides that will be available to consumers of services provided by Registered Building Professionals.

Engineers Australia's comments on the draft ‘Accreditation Framework’ that would outline the process by which industry schemes are deemed to provide ‘competent practitioners’ in NSW for building certifiers.

This protocol documents the essentials of performance for Professional Engineers acting in a professional capacity.

Engineers Australia submission to the Senate Standing Committee for Environment and Communications inquiry. 

Engineers Australia believes that all engineering occupations that are currently on the SOL should be retained and this submission is prepared on that basis. The pro-forma on-line questionnaire unduly limits the interests of peak organisations like Engineers Australia in this regard.

Engineers Australia would like to thank the Victorian Government for their leadership in advancing registration of engineers in Australia. Engineering is one of the few professions in Australia without a national approach to registration to ensure the qualifications and experience of all practitioners, both national and international, is at the appropriate level for the engineering service delivered.

This paper outlines the views of Engineers Australia concerning flooding and the improvement of the flood resilience of Queensland communities to flooding, in response to the Auditor General’s report Flood resilience of river catchments. 

Engineers Australia strongly believes that infrastructure is the essential enabler of productivity growth and it is essential to preserve and improve our standards of living. It should be fit for purpose and the flow of these services should stay ahead of population and economic growth.
