I now have MIEE (soon to be the IET) MBCS CITP (Chartered IT Professional) from the BCS EngTech (Engineer Technician) from the IEE and have applied for MIEEE membership. Are there any other institutes like this available? Can I use any of these chartered status' and/or chartered memberships towards a BSc or BA course in IT? Regards
The CITP designation is on a level of academic degree and may be evaluated as such. If you had IEng then you could apply for GCGI from City and Guilds I would contact City and Guilds Graduate award coordinator and check if you can apply for GCGI. GCGI in IT would be equivalent to Bachelors degree in IT. There is no transcript so you have limited use if you want to apply in to graduate school in USA, in UK there are Universities that will accept GCGI as entry in to the first year of Graduate school. With your EngTech you automatically eligible for LCGI in IT. This is equivalent to US Associate degree.
Re: Re: CITP status received ...what now? Thank you very much indeed for your help. I am in the situation whereby I have lots of proven and learned experience on-the-job, but have never had the chance to obtain an accredited degree. Regards
Re: Re: Re: CITP status received ...what now? CITP is believed to be an equivalent of a UK Honours degree qualification. Some UK universities, in fact, accept the CITP as a satisfying pre-requisite towards a post graduate program (UK Open Uni, etc.) in lieu of an accredited BSc.
