Institute of Industrial Engineers Information

The Institute of Industrial Engineers provides a forum for people interested in the advancement of industrial engineering and in optimising the use of increasingly scarce resources to solve problems of productivity. It provides members with an opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience. It is concerned with furthering the development and education of industrial engineers, and developing, collecting and distributing industrial engineering knowledge. Through meetings, Internet access, newsletters that incorporate information from like organisations throughout the world with which IIE has reciprocal agreements, members remain abreast of techniques, and knowledge that both facilitate and enhance the quality of services they provide to management. Ongoing education and continuing professional development (CPD) is encouraged through both Engineers Australia and IIE. Services provided to members respond to the specific needs of those members in each division and include such support as access to library services, publications, technical papers and activities such as workshops and plant visits. Its role also includes establishing qualifications and professional standing by setting standards to be met and by maintaining appropriate membership gradings and the award of post nominals.
