Recognised Organisations for Training
Organizations and institutions that are recognized for training of engineers are classified according to the basic engineering disciplines, such as Civil, Electrical, Mechanical, Chemical, etc. The training afforded by these organizations may be complete or may be partial depending on the facilities available. The period of such recognition could vary from two to five years, after which re-evaluation of the organization is required.
Applying for Recognition

Therefore if your Organisation has a strong engineering bias and has all or part of the following
•
