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.

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.

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
number of members to participate at head of f ice

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

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

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

38 Why was I compelled to answer some questions. Eg. I had no choice f or questions 15,16 and 17 but had to 7/2/2013 2:05 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.

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.

100 Use IT to deliv er courses ov ercoming distance and time barriers. We cannot use phy sical locations as the 6/25/2013 12:31 PM
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
month. A panel discussion
