The status of Fellow of the Institute of Explosives Engineers is the highest professional grade of membership of the Institute. The awarding of the grade of Fellow will be a reflection on the individual’s professional achievements and standing within the explosives profession, and the contributions made and recognised by the applicant’s peer group.
Any member wishing to apply for the grade of Fellow should ensure they meet the following minimum requirements:-
over 35 years of age; and
have had at least 15 years of experience connected with explosives engineering; and
have been a voting member of the Institute for a minimum of five years (unless applying for direct entry)
they are either:-
The application should include a personal statement (of not less than 500 words) confirming against which of the above criteria the application is submitted. In addition, the application is required to be supported by 2 detailed references provided by one current IExpE member, and one current IExpE Fellow (of not less than 500 words). The applicant is also required to provide documents in support of qualifications and experience, and an up to date CV.
Once all documentation has been received by the Institute Administration Office the same process for assessing and processing membership applications of all grades will be followed.
Where appropriate, applications will be accepted by the Institute for direct entry as a Fellow. Such applicants must satisfy the criteria laid down within this document for being not only a member but also a Fellow, and shall be judged on their career achievements, competencies and standing amongst their peer group. While entrance through this particular route will be limited, professional eminence and achievement within the explosives fraternity shall be deemed a major deciding factor for this direct entry.
When submitting your application please be aware of the Institute’s policy in relation to criminal convictions and insolvency. If you have at the time of entering the Institute, or subsequently acquire, any relevant conviction or become subject to any order of Insolvency you need to declare them.
The Institute has been approved by the Board of the Inland Revenue, under Section 201, Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988 for members whose Tax affairs are dealt with in the UK to obtain Income Tax Relief on their Subscriptions.
