Joining IExESG
From
its inception in 2003 the Institute of Explosives Engineers, Singapore
Branch (IExpE SG) has represented companies and
individuals who use explosives as part of the everyday tools of their
trade. Over time the Institute has grown as have the services it provides
to its members.
The quality of those services has also improved. Training Courses, the
Quarterly Journal (from IExpE UK) and the Web
Site has become more sophisticated each year. As these improvements become
apparent so the regard with which the Institute is viewed has risen
accordingly, and it is ever more able to speak for the profession.
In 2008, IExpE UK was accepted as a Professional
Affiliate of the Engineering Council UK (ECUK) and prepared the way for
suitably qualified members to apply for Eng Tech,
IEng or CEng status. In 2009 it was accepted as a
Member of the European Federation of Explosives Engineers.
Through the Explosives Engineers, Singapore Branch (IExpE
SG), members of all categories and from all disciplines have a live forum.
Demolition contractors, explosives manufacturers, underwater specialists,
miners, tunnellers, quarrymen, disposal contractors, vibration specialists,
oil industry contractors, special effects technicians (pyrotechnicians),
firework display operators, Police Explosives Liaison Officers, Legislators
and members of the Armed Services find a common voice to express concerns
and ideas and to understand better the requirements and concerns of those
explosives engineering disciplines that are less familiar to them.
Uniquely, amongst similar organisations, our institute requires aspiring
members to demonstrate evidence of professional knowledge and experience by
examination to gain membership.
