How to become a Qualified Engineer in Malaysia & South East Asia

A lot of people have confusion on how to become a qualified registered engineer in Malaysia, and how to increase engineering mobility in South East Asia.

In this article, I will summarize what you need to with the following 3 steps:

STEP 1:
Register yourself as a Graduate Engineer (Jurutera Siswazah) with the Board of Engineers Malaysia (BEM) - Lembaga Jurutera Malaysia. Make sure you have a engineering degree qualification which is approved by BEM. If your registration been approved, you will receive the confirmation slip from BEM within a few months.

 STEP 3: Engineer Mobility within South East Asia

Nowadays engineering profession become global. Becoming a global engineer have many advantages, including more employment opportunities and networking. As for me, after obtaining the Graduate Member of IEM, I proceed with Associate ASEAN Engineer registration (AAE). After registration approved, you will receive a certificate, medal and you will be part of the ASEAN ENGINEERING REGISTER online engineer database.
