title = "Trends preventing engineers from obtaining professional registration with ECSA in the required time",
abstract = "Graduate engineers in South Africa are expected to operate as professional engineers within a time-frame of approximately 3 years after graduation; however they do not achieve this. It is vital that engineers are able to operate at the expected levels of a professional engineer in the required time to promote the growth of the engineering sector. An industry survey was used to investigate the trends why professional registration is not obtained within time.",
