Bit of a cheesey reply then. I hated those forms when you started a
job. There was an extremely high temptation to misinterpret things.
Qualifications always made me laugh as I have no formal ones at all,
and they often simply could not understand why I could do the job
better than their chinless graduate with a million 'ologies' to their
name. I tended to put common sense A in the University of life. Brian
My dad was disappointed that he could not join the IEEE because of lack
of qualifications - he was on a number of (and chairing some) BSI
committees at the time!
why would he want to join an American institution?
I was a member of the IEEE once, they have pretty mags and it was free.
I did look at joining the IEE but I felt insulted that they wanted me to
answer two questions on their exam papers when they usually wanted more.
So they were saying I knew more than their usual applicants but not enough.
There wasn't any real advantage of joining anyway.
it's the IET now it change in 2006.
