The Agreement to establish and maintain an EMF International Register of Professional Engineers is intended to provide a framework for the recognition of experienced professional engineers by responsible bodies to each of the signatory economies. Such bodies will be encouraged to use the Register as a secure benchmark for arrangement which provide mutual recognition or exemption by Professional Engineers in licensing or registration in economies other than that in which they first gained recognition.
