IOR Fellow, Member, Associate and Technician members are eligible to apply for Engineering Council Registration through a joint agreement with CIBSE (You do not need to be a CIBSE member or apply for CIBSE membership and you can swap your registration from CIBSE to IOR!).
Engineering Council registration gives you:

- designatory initials after your name (CEng, IEng or EngTech)
- evidence of your commitment to your Continued Professional Development, ethical standards and sustainability.
