37 IESL website does not update about CPDs. I am constantly checking the website to attend some CPDs but 6/25/2013 9:33 PM
IESL rarely of f ers CPD programms. I hav e been asking when they start the A/C CPD program, but no
positiv e answer and no updates on the IESL website as well. Furthermore, I want to attend more CPD
program related to Electrical Engineering and af ter Electrical Installations, IESL hav e not of f ered any other
y et. And Electrical Installations was also only of f ered in the beginning of the y ear which I missed and hav e
been waiting f or the next Electrical Installations CPD which hasn't been of f ered y et. So I like to suggest to
add more CPD programs technical as well as f or management, and keep updating the website f requently
and of f ering the same CPD program more than once per y ear.

10 IESL shall adv ice Univ ersities to promote practical learning, because all of the theories what we learnt in 7/5/2013 9:47 PM
univ ersity are repeating in f ield, so to av oid the ov erlapping of learning univ ersity studies shall be practical.
IESL should take action to reduce bribe among engineering society by any way . Because bribe is ruining the
f ield of engineering.
11 Please include a box asking if y ou are resident in another country and hence unable to participate. Else this 7/5/2013 9:14 PM

28 There are many senior engineers waiting seeking designs to qualif y f or chartered engineering. If this is 7/3/2013 9:54 AM
conducted through univ ersities f or a reasonable course f ee, all three parties (i.e. IESL, Univ ersities,
f ollowers) will benef it. This is just a suggestion.
29 It's better to arrange sev eral CDP courses at prov incial centers, because it is v ery dif f icult f or large 7/2/2013 11:26 PM

30 CPD programmes should be interactiv e workshops, rather than conv entional seminars or lectures 7/2/2013 9:11 PM
31 Dear Sir, The online learning may be much helpf ul f or the people who work outside Colombo. Hence, please 7/2/2013 6:08 PM
alway s upload all the lectures,seminars etc. Thank Y ou
32 By arranging seminar and short courses in house(at IESL Auditorium or any other economical place) ,It is 7/2/2013 5:19 PM
possible to reduce the course f ee which is af f ordable by most of the engineers without organizing those at
high class hotels
33 i would like if y ou can arrange more CPD activ ities in prov incial centers. if it is possible to arrange courses 7/2/2013 4:14 PM

Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Needs Assessment The Institution of Engineers,
34 Please add programs related to Materials Engineering also, y ou can add them to mechanical Engineering 7/2/2013 3:46 PM

35 if course details are sent earlier it will help us to arrange f unding thruogh our employ er and also to arrange 7/2/2013 3:37 PM
the of f ice work accordingly .
36 CPD program is good f or engineers but I request to join good resource persons, because we hav e ty pical 7/2/2013 3:20 PM
lectures or speakers rather than knowledge sharers. Please try to f ind resource persons with hav ing good
local and international exposure, creativ ity and out of box thinking.
37 Selecting best suit Resource Person f or each course is v ery much impotent f or the success. 7/2/2013 2:53 PM

43 The current training of Engineers lacks sof ter skills such as collaboration, sustainability , gender 7/2/2013 12:58 PM
mainstreaming, mobilizing non state actors, budgeting as a tool f or implementation of policy and strategy
44 IESL should initiate a qualif ication list f or each courses that students hav e to f ulf ill bef ore participating. If 7/2/2013 12:53 PM
any one cane come to and participate then no need to conduct by IESL. any organization can conduct those
courses.
48 Required more programs f or student members and quick member registration process. 7/1/2013 4:14 PM
49 I am Expecting Technical and Construction Management CPDs on Weekends with f ree of Charge or Less 6/30/2013 10:27 PM
Charges
50 I personally believ e the way IESL conduct CPDs must improv ed as the institute has a determining role to 6/29/2013 6:30 AM
play in order to upgrade the lev el of indiv idual prof essionals. As engineers upgrading and ref reshing minds
are alway s v ital in knowledge and personal qualities. As a suggestion i would say , IESL must conduct CPD
sessions more of ten (one per month), which must well organized, relev ant, practical and implementable.
51 If y ou can arrange the lectures and training programmes in a place where we can reach without dif f iculty , 6/28/2013 10:50 AM
(eg.Galle road) it is v ery helpf ul. And also, if there are considerable amount of participants, try to organise a
place where most of them can easily trav el. (f or eg. if most of the participants are f rom Ratmalana,
Mt.Lav inia, Piliy andala, selecting the place as Univ ersity of Moratuwa will be easy f or all. Thank y ou f or
preparing such a surv ey so that those who don't know about CPD will know what it is and what benef icial is
it.

way . Waste of time and energy and no f reedom. Understand platf orms to deliv er online training. Collaborate
with diaspora members in academia and industry to jump start and run f ast without wasting time reinv enting
the wheel. We hav e our own members who can do this f or us. Content is alway s the king so make sure no
matter how its deliv ered, quality world class content and lecturers are selected a d paid. Don't go cheap. If
expensiv e increase intake v ia online tools etc a d reduce per head cost. Learn f rom CIMA, SLIM etc. they
are not cheap, they pull hundreds of people including our own members! Bring glamour and marketing. Get
sponsors f or big ev ents. Also use f oreign public online cousrses f rom major univ ersities in the world and
giv e access to them. Find members to deliv er content. But f irst f ind out what hey hav e done with their
knowledge. Just teaching will not do, we must bring leaders who hav e practiced what they know.doing is not
as easy as say ing. Create a lecture series by inv iting leading CEOs. Create a CEO f orum at IESL once a
