APEC Engineer Registration
Disciplines Recognized in APEC Economies and Current Situation of
Assessment
There are currently eleven technical disciplines in the APEC Engineer Register,
and scope of applications for registration has been expanded from two disciplines
such as Civil and Structural in November, 2000, followed by Mechanical,
Electrical and Chemical in November 2003, and all of the rest of Geotechnical,
Environmental, Industrial, Mining, Information and Bio in April 2006.
Civil Engineering (from Nov. 2000)
Structural Engineering (from Nov. 2000)
Geotechnical Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Environmental Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Mechanical Engineering (from Nov. 2003)
Electrical Engineering (from Nov. 2003)
Industrial Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Mining Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Chemical Engineering (from Nov. 2003)
Information Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Bio Engineering (from Apr. 2006)
Registration
There are two sorts of practitioners thought as APEC Engineer in Japan, P.E. Jp. and 1st-class Kenchikushi (Architects / Building Engineer).
Since the Project declared the start of Registration of APEC Engineers
in Nov. 2000, the Japanese Monitoring Committee has carried out the assessment
for APEC Engineer morethan twenty times. Regarding P.E.Jp., 2113 cases
are put on the Register as of end February 2007.
Renewal of Registration
The effective period of APEC engineer registration is five (5) years. For
renewal application, implementation of 250 hours CPD within 5 years period
in accordance with the CPD Guideline is required.
