Victorian Professional Engineer Act 2019

 At 10.30pm on Tuesday 27 August 2019, the Victorian Parliament passed the Engineer Registration Bill, making Victoria the second Australian state to introduce a mandatory registration scheme for engineers - something Professionals Australia has been campaigning for for a long time. 

This landmark achievement is a great step forward for engineering in both Victoria and across Australia. 

The Victorian Professional Engineer Act 2019  can now be viewed online.

The LGEA and the NSW division of Professionals Australia will continue our efforts to ensure that an engineer registration scheme, consistent with those in Queensland and Victorian, is introduced in NSW, so that the profession, industry and community in this state enjoy the same protections as those other states.
