Mandatory Continuing Professional Development Requirements for Corporate Members
Mandatory Continuing Professional Development Requirements for Corporate Members have been implemented since 1 January 2007.
A random checking of about 1% of all Corporate Members will be conducted on an annual basis. Members who are selected for checking will be asked to submit their evidence of CPD.The following actions shall be taken in case of noncompliance:
- All Corporate Members who fail to comply with the CPD requirements will receive a warning letter and will be asked to submit their CPD attainment again for the following year unless (a) they have resigned or been removed from membership roll, or (b) changed their membership status to “retired”.
- Corporate Members who fail to comply with the CPD requirements in the third consecutive year will have their names reported to the Learned Society Board.
- Corporate Members who fail to comply with the CPD requirements in the fourth consecutive year will have their names reported to the Council with recommendations from CPD Committee.
- Corporate Members who fail to comply with the CPD requirements in the fifth consecutive year will have their names reported to the Council with recommendations from CPD Committee. Recommendations for fifth year may include the consideration of removal of Member from the membership roll on the basis of improper conduct under Articles 13(4) and (5) of the Constitution.
For details, please refer to the “Guidance Notes for Mandatory Continuing Professional Development (CPD) for Corporate Members” which is available on the HKIE website at https://hkie.org.hk/professional-development/continuingprofessional-

Mandatory Basic Safety Training under the Factories and Industrial Undertakings Ordinance, Cap. 59
Corporate Membership has satisfied the Commissioner for Labour in respect of section 6BA(4), Cap 59 since 1998 on the understanding that Corporate Members have undertaken a minimum unit in the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programmes, which include updates on occupational health and safety legislation. On the basis that Corporate Members will continuously update their knowledge in occupational safety and health through CPD, Corporate Members of the HKIE do not need to take mandatory basic safety training before entering construction sites.
Please note that the HKIE is required to provide such CPD records concerning the recognition of the Corporate Members’ training for the purpose of section 6BA, Cap 59 upon the request of the Labour Department.
All Corporate Members must make a declaration on having satisfied the CPD requirements relating to Health & Safety (H&S) before they would be issued a physical membership card for entering construction sites. Members who have been selected for CPD sample check must provide the relevant H&S CPD for verification. If a Member is found not meeting the requirement but have obtained a physical membership card, he/she will be asked to return the membership card immediately. If the member concerned does not return the card, the member would not be issued a physical membership card in the subsequent two years unless he/she has fulfilled all the prevailing CPD requirements. The CPD Committee would review if the Member had made a false declaration to obtain a physical membership card and refer the matter to the Institution as appropriate.
Members may refer to the online references of safety training for information:
Online CPD Logbook for Members of the HKIE
The online CPD logbook service is now in operation to provide solely for members of the HKIE to record their personal CPD activities. Members are invited to enter the Member Login area of our website to access to this online free-of-charge CPD logbook for keeping a systemic record of their CPD participation.
For trainees who are under the formal training schemes of the HKIE, they will remain to be required to record their CPD activities in the Record of CPD with endorsement by their Engineering Supervisors.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Member Login Service Support at mlssupport@hkie.org.hk.
Electronic Membership Cards for Corporate Members and Associate Members
Starting from Financial Year 2024-2025, Corporate Members (Fellows, Members) and Associate Members can access their e-membership card in the Member Login Area under “My Membership” > “e-Membership Card” five working days a˙e r the settlement of membership subscription for that financial year.
In addition to the issue of e-membership card, Corporate and Associate Members in need will be o˝ered a choice of receiving a physical membership card for use upon entering construction sites. The statement “This member of The Hong Kong Institution of Engineers has satisfied the Commissioner for Labour in respect of Section 6BA(4), Cap. 59” will be included in the physical membership card only. Members who wish to receive a physical membership card will need to indicate their preference and make a declaration on satisfying the CPD hours as required related to health & safety for the 12 months preceding the renewal of membership (i.e. since 1 April of the previous year). Upon the settlement of the membership subscription fee and completion of the declaration subject to prevailing CPD requirements, the physical membership card will be issued accordingly.
