Mutual Recognition of Professional Registration

Every year, the Board hosts one of its Board Meetings at a regional location. September was the month for this year’s regional meeting, with Board Members and staff visiting Mackay. After the meeting, the Board hosted a meet and greet with Mackay based engineers. This is a fantastic opportunity for RPEQs to meet the Board Members and staff, and Mackay was no different.

At the Mackay meet and greet, the Board also had the opportunity to meet, congratulate and present certificates to new RPEQs, Mr Bhekusizi Dhlodhlo and Mr Akm Azam.

While in Mackay, the Board also held its second strategic planning day for 2019, and the first for its new Board Members. The day was incredibly successful with the biggest outcome being that the foundations of the Boards new Strategic Plan are starting to take shape. The new Strategic Plan is scheduled to come into effect in 2020.

BPEQ’s Annual Report for 2018/19 has been submitted to the Minister for Housing and Public Works and will tabled in the Queensland Parliament later this month. The Annual Report provides a useful snapshot of where the organisation is at and its achievements. All but one of the Board’s strategies and commitments to achieve its objectives has been either commenced or completed. The work done behind the scenes by Board members and BPEQ will become more evident and deliver real benefits for our stakeholders.

Two sets of figures from the 2018/19 Annual Report stood out to me:

1. 1,998 = the number of new RPEQs registered in 2018/19

2. 1,080,840 = the number of BPEQ website page views in 2018/19

These metrics are just two examples of BPEQ increasing awareness amongst its stakeholders.

Throughout the Safer Buildings program BPEQ has actively promoted the benefit and need for building owners and strata managers to engage RPEQs to complete building statements and cladding checklists. The stage 3 deadline of the Safer Buildings program – where building owners must engage a RPEQ fire engineer and register their details – is 31 October 2019.

Having followed the debate about registration for engineers in Victoria, it is encouraging to see that the Professional Engineers Registration Bill 2019 successfully passed through the Victorian Parliament. The Board is excited about what this means for professional engineers, and for other states who may be considering their own Bills for the professional registration of engineers.

If we can provide further information or assistance, please contact BPEQ at admin@bpeq.qld.gov.au or call 07 3210 3100.

EDUCATING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ENGINEERS

Teaching engineering students the competencies that they require to practice professionally as engineers is a non-trivial challenge. This is especially true with teaching professional practice topics such as risk management, ethics, and responsibilities, accountabilities and obligations. Through experience, I have learned, that a good way to address this challenge is with a three-pronged approach that covers, theory, practice and case study analysis.

The theory covers obligations, codes of conduct, ethical requirements and competency standards. In teaching the theory, information provided by registering bodies including BPEQ, Engineers Australia and discipline specific organisations such as the Institute of Chemical Engineers is referenced. Material available from the Warren Centre is also referred to.

Interacting with and having practicing professional engineers tell stories about their professional experiences ‘brings to life’ important points about engineering practices, writes BPEQ academic representative Maureen Hassall.

To help the students understand real-world professional engineering practices, we have professional engineers involved in teaching, tutoring and giving guest lectures into the risk and safety engineering courses. The course coordinators are RPEQs who also consult to industry and the course tutors are all industry-experienced engineers. Having registered, industry experienced engineers teaching about risk and safety engineering allows them to share their real-world professional practice experiences when teaching the course content. In addition, guest speakers from industry and government are invited to share their experiences working as professional engineers. Representatives from regulators, oil and gas, energy, chemical and mining companies, major contracting houses, EPCMs and other consultants have given lectures that have helped the students understand the variety of work and the range of challenges and expectations that professional engineers can be exposed to. Professional engineers involved in tutoring and giving guest lectures are invited to review and provide informal feedback on the risk and safety courses.

Case studies are used in the course to reinforce and expand upon the theory and practice focused course content. Examples of case studies that focus on professional practice include the Wivenhoe dam management during the 2011 Queensland floods, the Volkswagen vehicle emissions engineers, the Queensland Nickel restart as well as the ethical dilemma case studies published by Shallcross in Education for Chemical Engineers Journal.

Students seem to prefer and get more engaged with the content when it is delivered by guest lecturers and through case study analysis. Interacting with and having practicing professional engineers tell stories about their professional experiences ‘brings to life’ important points about engineering practices. The case study analysis provides good prompts and lessons learned that stimulate both

both broad and in-depth discussions with students. The course coordinators also enjoy the range of different perspectives they get from the guest lectures and I am also interested in hearing about other case studies that people think would be relevant to fourth years and Masters students.

Have a suggestion for other case study subjects for engineering students or want to be involved as a guest lecturer?

FOUR CORNERS REPORT MUST PROMPT CHANGE IN BUILDING SECTOR: BPEQ

Widespread shortcomings in the building sector – including building defects, cost cutting, substandard work and a lack of oversight and public protection – have been laid bare in Four Corners’ report Cracking Up.

The report comes in the aftermath of evacuations at Mascot Towers and Opal Tower in Sydney after the buildings were found to be structurally unsound.

Board of Professional Engineers of Queensland (BPEQ) Chairman Dawson Wilkie said the recent media attention on building standards reinforced the need for engineers to be involved throughout the building project lifecycle and for other States and Territories to adopt registration for engineers.

“Like many Australians I was shocked by what happened at Mascot Towers and Opal Tower,” said Mr Wilkie.

“Apartment owners expect that their homes are designed and built to a certain standard and comply with relevant building codes; qualified and competent engineers are an integral part of the building process.

“The Four Corners report highlights the urgency of having professional standards and regulation of engineers.

“Fortunately, Queensland is uniquely placed to deal with these issues by having legislation in place that sets standards for engineers; requires them to be registered to practice; distinguishes actual engineers from the pretenders and provides an avenue for the public to make a complaint about a professional engineering service if something goes wrong.

“The Professional Engineers Act has existed since 1930 and can be the model used by other States and Territories to regulate engineers and protect the public.”

Mr Wilkie said the Professional Engineers Act reduced the chances of a Mascot Towers or Opal Tower episode happening in Queensland. If similar incidents were to happen in Queensland, BPEQ can investigate and prosecute individuals found responsible for flawed engineering services.

To obtain registration, engineers must first graduate with an accredited engineering degree, then develop competency through work experience and be assessed as eligible for registration.

Once registered, engineers are awarded the protected title Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ). There are currently over 14,000 RPEQs whose names and contact details are kept in a publicly searchable register available at www.bpeq.qld.gov.au.

MUTUAL RECOGNITION OF PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION

In an increasing world of globalisation and the ability of professionals to work across interstate and trans-national jurisdictional boundaries, the foresight of the Federal Government and each State and Territory together with the Government of New Zealand to commit to mutual recognition principles is to be applauded.

The Mutual Recognition Act 1992 (Cth)(“MRA”) came into force on 23 June 1993, with the latest version commencing on 7 December 2018 and the Trans-Tasman Mutual Recognition Act 1997 (Cth) (“TTMRA”) came into force on 1 May 1999 with the latest version commencing on 23 March 2019 (together the “Acts”).

All Australian States and Territories enacted adopting legislation to become a participating jurisdiction in the following years:

The principal purpose of the Acts was to provide the freedom of movement of goods and service providers across jurisdictions without the encumbrances or red tape. In essence, for professional registration, it is the promoting of the ability of persons who are registered in connection with an occupation in one jurisdiction to carry on an equivalent occupation in another jurisdiction.

Since 1992 there has been continued ambiguity on how the provisions of the Acts should be interpreted and applied by various professional registration authorities within each jurisdiction. Not surprisingly professionals themselves have become confused. In particular understanding on what the words used in the Acts

mean and how they are applied. For example, “relevant occupation”, “profession”, “authorised activities” and how they inter relate. The Federal Courts and Administrative Appeals Tribunal that have heard and determined matters under the Acts suggest that carrying out an occupation or profession in different jurisdictions where each occupation or profession cover similar activities, it would be contrary to the spirit of the Acts if professionals were excluded from participating in the Mutual Recognition scheme as a result of some technical interpretation or argument. If the provisions of the Acts are applied in a practical, common sense manner then the spirit of the legislation to eliminate occupational problems between the States can be achieved.

That being said, there is an absolute obligation on the notifier/applicant for registration under either Act to fulfil their responsibilities in connection with notifying the inter jurisdictional registration authority of their eligibility to be recognised under the scheme. These obligations are listed at section 19 of the MRA or section 18 of the TTMRA. As part of these obligations each notifier/applicant have to provide evidence of their occupational equivalency. In most cases it is helpful to have legislated activities in order to form the bases of any comparison. Therefore, if the home jurisdiction has these activities listed in their governing legislation then it will be helpful for that to be pointed out to the registration authority that is being approached to approve mutual recognition registration. In some cases, this is not the case. The Professional Engineers Act 2002 (Qld), for example, does not attempt to define or restrict the activities of a person who is registered as a professional engineer. The absence of a legislative guide in any Act of parliament in the home State then requires clear and cogent evidence to be provided, by the notifier/applicant, for mutual recognition to be assessed.

Evaluating equivalent occupations by the Board of Professional Engineers Queensland (“Board”)

In evaluating comparisons, registration authorities are required to look at all the activities of that occupation rather than just at the legal structure within which the occupation or profession operates. That is to say, looking at the day to day professional/occupational activities rather than just the legislative provisions. Although as has been noted above, legislated activities are often a useful starting point.

The Board, in its role as the registration authority for Engineers in Queensland and in fulfilling its obligations under both Acts can consider any evidence as to the applicant’s/notifier’s practice of engineering, provided by the applicant or the registration authority in the home jurisdiction. For example:

A notifier/applicant approaching the Board as a CPEng (NZ) registered with Engineering New Zealand (“ENZ”), to be recognised under the TTMRA should supply at a minimum the letter that is supplied to them by ENZ at the time they are successfully assessed for CPEng registration. This letter includes a statement to the effect “ the assessment panel consider the following to be an accurate description of your practice area,” followed by the Panel’s evaluation of the candidates practice area. The notifier should also consider providing the assessment Panel’s evaluation on their competencies to help in the Board’s evaluation/assessment for mutual recognition. It is to be remembered that the Board do no more than react to material sent to them. There is no obligation on the Board to make inquiries before coming to a decision, although the Board does have the power to request information on the notifier’s/applicant’s activities in the relevant occupation under consideration or otherwise regarding matters relevant to the notice/application (see s19(2(h) of the MRA and s18(2)(h) of the TTMRA).

If the Board have all the relevant information in front of them then registration is granted under either of the Acts usually with one month of being notified of the request to be recognised. If not, then the Board will postpone the grant of registration for up to 6 months to provide the notifier/applicant an opportunity to provide further documents/information acceptable to the Board in order to come to a determination on the grant or refusal of substantive registration under mutual recognition principles. During this time the Board may also seek out information from the registration authority from the home jurisdiction that satisfies the Board on occupational equivalency and activities undertaken by the notifier/applicant.

The Board have a policy that can help guide all future notifiers/applicants for mutual recognition and can be found here: https://bit.ly/2lkXHMU. Together with this article it may go somewhere to unwinding the maze of mutual recognition where it concerns professional registration.
