We strive for excellence in international engineering education, accreditation and professional competence

The International Engineering Alliance (IEA) is a global collective of like-minded organisations focused on quality assurance in engineering education and professional competence.

The International Engineering Alliance (IEA) is known as the leading global organisation that sets benchmark standards for engineering education and helps support engineers to work across borders & support sustainable communities.

We exist to support the global mobility of engineers by promoting the mutual recognition of accredited engineering qualifications and professional competence. 

Accords

The Accords recognise internationally benchmarked standards for engineering education programs.

The three accords each represent an engineering qualification level and provide a framework for mutual recognition of engineering education across participating signatories.

 

 

Agreements

Agreements recognise the substantial equivalence of competence standards for engineering professionals.

The four agreements focus on engineering mobility and registration, enabling qualified engineers to practice across borders with streamlined recognition processes.

Global Collaboration

IEA, UNESCO & WFEO: Setting a Global Standard for Engineers

The IEA, UNESCO and WFEO joined forces to create a global benchmark for engineering education and practice. Our new Graduate Attributes and Professional Competencies set out what engineering graduates of accord accredited programmes should know and be able to do — helping shape a smarter, more sustainable world.
