The Engineering Council has introduced the ICTTech Standard to meet the demand for professional registration of competent technicians in this field. To achieve this, we worked closely with major employers of ICT technicians, Sector Skills Council representatives, and with leading professional engineering institutions (PEIs) with experience of fast-developing technology.

This document incorporates the ICT Technician (ICTTech) standard and sets out the procedures to be followed and the system of assessment to become registered as a professional (ICTTech). The standard details the competence and commitment which must be demonstrated in order to achieve registration - and gives examples of how this might be done. Further requirements are also described and supporting information is provided.
