AB  -                   Engineering Program Accreditation                  in Latin America and the CaribbeanThe International Engineering Accreditation Alliance (IEA) [1] is formed by thesignatories of the six international agreements governing mutual recognition ofqualifications and professional competence of engineers. Washington Accordrecognizes substantial equivalence in professional engineering degrees (normallya 4 years degree). The Sydney Accord recognizes substantial equivalence inengineering technology degrees (normally a 3 year). The Dublin Accord providesthe same for engineering technician degree (normally 2 years). There are threeother agreements that cover competence standards for individual practicingengineers (the APEC Engineer Agreement, the International ProfessionalEngineers Agreement, and the International Engineering TechnologistAgreement). This paper will focus on engineering program accreditation, notcredentialing of individual engineers.None of the engineering program accreditation agencies in Latin America and theCaribbean are members of the IEA. There are different strategies used to provideaccess to engineering program accreditation or quality assurance to universities inthe Latin America and Caribbean. These are examined, and a summary of thestate of engineering program accreditation in the region will be presented.[1] “International Engineering Alliance: Working Together to AdvanceBenchmarking and Mobility in the Engineering Profession,” accessed January 30,2015 at http://www.ieagreements.org/
