International Engineering Alliance (IEA)

The International Engineering Alliance (IEA) is an organization that promotes global cooperation and recognition of engineering qualifications. It develops standards and frameworks, such as the Washington Accord, to ensure that engineering degrees and professional credentials are comparable across different countries. This helps engineers move and work internationally with mutual recognition of their skills and qualifications, fostering mobility and supporting international engineering practices. Essentially, the IEA acts as a bridge to harmonize engineering education standards worldwide, facilitating a more integrated and professional global engineering community.
