Development Objectives
Your route to membership as EngTech TMICE/ AMICE / MICE and IEng MICE/ CEng MICE

Development Objectives
Competence-based scheme

ICE training revolves around achievement of DOs Generic objectives many methods of achieving them
Tool for driving your own development

Development Objectives
5 categories:
A Develop engineering knowledge & understanding to
make the most of existing & emerging technology

B Apply appropriate theoretical and practical methods


to analysis & solution of engineering problems

C Provide technical and commercial management D Demonstrate effective interpersonal skills E Demonstrate a personal commitment to professional
standards, recognising obligations to society, the profession and the environment

DOs how to get started


Plan
Decide which DOs you can / intend to achieve depending on experience you expect to gain Discuss opportunities with your supervisor

Keep records of relevant experience


Aim to demonstrate that you have achieved a level of competence for selected DOs

Set out Claim of Achievement (A / K / E / B)


Summarise in a concise paragraph how you have achieved this level of competence Support your claim with evidence Reference to your Development Report Appendices to the DR.

Development Objectives ICE 3005

Students are encouraged to start working towards their DO achievement during their academic studies and particularly during vacation or placement experience in industry.

How to use the Achievement Rating?


Each DO is given an achievement rating against the following scale:

How to use the Achievement Rating?


Each DO is given an achievement rating against the following scale:

A K

Appreciation Knowledge

You must appreciate why the DO is important and why it is done. You must have a basic understanding and knowledge of the DO and how it is achieved You must have achieved the DO, or part of it, working under supervision. You must have achieved the DO several times in different situations, having the competence to assist others and to work without supervision.

E B

Experience Ability

You and your mentor should use this scale primarily as a learning programme and should record your progression towards the achievement of each DO to identify the next stage of your development.

E During the 2 months at Consult Ltd, apart from carrying out various designs in reinforced concrete and masonry, I assisted in writing the designers risk assessment for the school, taking into account, not only the construction, but also demolition and maintenance. I contributed to the Health and Safety Plan for the building. We consulted with the contractor (D&B Contract) regarding casting sequences and as a result modified the reinforcement to suit his pours.

ICE 3005 Development Objectives

Development Reports - Purpose


to prepare a library of ideas and methods to be used as a source of reference when repeating tasks in the future

Aide-memoir for clever methods developed and learnt


a career-development tool for use throughout your work to develop your report-writing skills to plan your future experience

Development Reports - Approach


Report is for your own benefit include items of interest to you Start by reviewing projects you have been involved in
Vacation work etc Project work

Compile a list / selection of important facts and supporting sketches, calculations, tables, forms, details and photographs etc.

Development Reports - Appendices


Sort out the most valuable items and discard less interesting / informative points
Keep evidence of achievement of Development Objectives. If item is useful, summarise into a short method statement.
Annotate photographs and drawings show important details / why good / bad. Summarise calculations with main points and description of process and highlight important steps. Explain importance of / where information in tables / forms came from

These items form appendices to your report and development objectives

Development Report
Base report on evidence assembled for appendices Structure so that development objectives are addressed / highlighted

Approx 1000-1200 words, but may vary (excluding appendices)


Be concise identify what is important and include that only Omit unnecessary padding

Reports should not read like a diary

Development Report
Review what learned
What was useful, What problems occurred & how you resolved them Why it is interesting, Why it is important, What went really well, What you would do differently if you were to do it again, What have you made a note of so you don't make the same mistake in future. How well did you organise the project How did the team perform
