This Volunteers’ Week (2-8 June 2025), the Engineering Council celebrates the dedicated individuals whose time, expertise and passion help uphold the standards that maintain the trust and respect of the engineering profession.
A national campaign that takes place every June, Volunteers’ Week celebrates and thanks volunteers for the important work they do. It is an opportunity for organisations and communities to show their appreciation for both current and past volunteers.
The contributions of our volunteers help uphold the Standards that define the engineering profession. From our Board of Trustees, who guide the strategic direction of our organisation, to those who contribute their expertise through panels, committees, and working groups, our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do at the Engineering Council. They help develop and maintain the Standards and Guidance that underpin professional registration, support the quality assurance of our licensed professional institutions, and provide essential insight from across industry, academia, and beyond.
Engineering Council CEO, Paul Bailey says “With a regulatory regime based on peer review, the expertise and commitment of our volunteers are vital to the work of the Engineering Council. We remain sincerely grateful for all of our volunteers’ time and dedication, without which we would not be able to support and develop the high standards that give the engineering profession its credibility and public trust”.
As we thank all our volunteers for their ongoing support, we also encourage others to get involved. Volunteering is a chance to give back, grow professionally, and help shape the future of engineering.

The Engineering Council holds the national Register of Engineering Technicians (EngTech), Incorporated Engineers (IEng), Chartered Engineers (CEng) and Information and Communication Technology Technicians (ICTTech). It also sets and maintains the internationally recognised standards of competence and ethics that govern the award and retention of these titles. By this means it is able to ensure that employers, government and wider society, both at home and overseas, can have confidence in the skills and commitment of registrants.
