Educationeducation into the assigned tasks. The developing engineer’s work is generally closely supervisedby other engineers in the group, and he begins to form a set of contacts as technical or professionalresources.The engineer (EN) begins to help direct the tasks of developing engineers, and thus must be ableto efficiently teach them how to do things. Engineers are expected to be more autonomous workersthan developing engineers, with the idea that they can network independently with others to findsolutions to problems as needed. Engineers are often encouraged to continue their formal trainingby pursuing higher degrees and staying current on the latest technological process trends. Theymay also be involved in cross-training to other disciplines.The
