The Professional Engineering Regulatory Council was a body empowered by an act of parliament of 1990 to regulate and control the practice of engineering in Sierra Leone.However, due to the civil war in the nineties, much was not done and starting 2009 it was resolved that the act needed amendment for effective regulation of engineering practice.This resulted in the ccurrent amended version with a change of name to Professional Engineering Regulatory Council to emphasise the regulatory aspect of its functions.

Since the revision of this Act, the regulation and registration process of professional engineers and institutions improved.However, challenges are still being experienced with respect to cooperation of stakeholders including some MDA'S of Government, Institutions, Companies/Firms, as well as individuals providing engineering services in Sierra Leone.

The purpose of this workshop is to engage stakeholders to generally explain why all Engineers and Engineering Establishments regionally and internationally must register with their professional regulatory bodies such as PERC in Sierra Leone. Additional regulations such as Code of Conduct which will be developed to effectively enforce the ACT together with penalties for breaches,are also presented.

Exciting News! The Sierra Leone Institution of Engineers invites you to the 2024 Biennial Conference, with the theme "Contemporary Approaches to Engineering Education and Practices."

We are looking for groundbreaking research and innovative ideas on the following theme/sub-themes:

• Emerging Approaches to Engineering Education and General Practices - is Africa Getting it Right?
• AI in Education and General Practices
• Continual Professional Development or Lifelong Learning
• Diversity and Inclusion
• Addressing Climate Vulnerability
• Engineering Diplomacy: A Useful Tool in Foreign Policy

Mark your calendars for June 25th to 28th, 2024, at the New Brookfields Hotel on Jomo Kenyatta Road in Freetown.

Join us as we explore the future of engineering education and practices, share insights, and collaborate towards a brighter tomorrow!

During the opening ceremony on February 8th, our President, Ing. Trudy Morgan, conveyed our excitement in joining this esteemed gathering. Ing. Prof. Redwood Sawyerr, our former President and the current President of the West African Federation of Engineering Organisations (WAFEO), shared insightful plans about WAFEO's initiatives in harmonising curriculum and standards across universities and institutions in West Africa. It was indeed a day filled with camaraderie and invaluable learning opportunities. Let's continue to inspire and support each other in advancing engineering excellence across our region!
