The team at Groundline are celebrating that Ertugrul Keles, Senior Overhead Lines Engineer has just become a Chartered Professional Engineer.

This is a great piece of professional development for Ert and a great recognition for his experience.

Chartership measures engineers on their experience & knowledge of engineering, meeting high standards and their ability to make sound decisions and judgements.

CPEng is a competency mark with international accreditation.

He has now been formally recognised as an experienced engineer who can deal with complex engineering problems requiring expert technical knowledge.

It's not an easy accreditation to gain and there was a lot of hard work that went into it, so it's a mighty moment to be able to use the letters "CPEng" and we're very proud of him.
