BEAMA supports IEC Young Professionals Programme 2019

04 February 2019

Every year BSI along with BEAMA and other partners offer young engineers the chance to take part in the IEC Young Professionals Programme, all-expenses paid.

The Programme brings together the world's upcoming expert engineers, technicians and managers. And provides them with opportunities to shape the future of international standardization and conformity assessment in the field of electrotechnology.

The IEC is the world’s leading organization that prepares and publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic and related technologies. 

Every year its standardization and conformity assessment work leads to a week-long meeting – the IEC General Meeting – at which stakeholders from around the world debate current issues and decide on IEC’s future direction and strategy. The IEC Young Professionals Programme takes place during this week.

The next IEC Young Professional Programme takes place in Shanghai, China in October 2019.


Who should apply?

This professional development opportunity is open to engineers aged 35 or under as of 30 June in the year of the event for which they’re applying.

We welcome applications from ambitious engineering professionals who are currently making, or wishing to make, a difference in their industry, and with an interest in the standards they encounter in their professional practice.
