title: Putting engineering on the world stage.
abstract: Late last year the Engineering Council UK, which holds the national registers of Chartered Engineers, Incorporated Engineers, Engineering Technicians, and Information and Communication Technology Technicians, dropped the "UK" from its name to reflect its growing international focus. As Jonathan Baillie reports, at a London event held to introduce the name change senior personnel from the newly designated "Engineering Council" also debated some of the tough challenges faced by the engineering sector today, especially in recruiting "new blood".
