Duties
LEVEL A:Receives training in the various phases of offi ce, plant, field or laboratory engineering work as classroom instruction or on-the job assignments. Tasks assigned
include: preparation of simple plans, designs, calculations, costs and bills of material in accordance with established codes, standards, drawings or other specifi cations.
May carry out routine technical surveys or inspections and prepare reports.
LEVEL B
Normally regarded as a continuing portion of an engineer’s training and development. Receives assignmentsof limited scope and complexity, usually minor phases of broader
assignments. Uses a variety of standard engineering methods and techniques in solving problems. Assists more senior engineers in carrying out technical tasks
requiring accuracy in calculations, completeness of data and adherence to prescribed testing, analysis, design or computation methods.
LEVEL C
Typically regarded as a fully qualified professional engineering level. Carries out responsible and varied engineering assignments requiring general familiarity with a broad field of engineering and knowledge of reciprocal effects of the work upon
other fi elds. Problems usually solved by use of combination of standard
procedures, modifi cation of standard procedures, or methods developed
in previous assignments. Participates in planning to achieve prescribed
objectives.
Recommendations, Decisions and Commitments
LEVEL A
Few technical decisions called for and these will be of routine nature with ample precedent or clearly defi ned procedures as guidance.
LEVEL B
Recommendations limited to solution of the problem rather than end results. Decisions made are normally within established guidelines.
LEVEL C
Makes independent studies, analyses, interpretations and conclusions. Difficult, complex or unusual matters or decisions are usually referred to more senior authority.
Supervision Received
LEVEL A
Works under close supervision. Work is reviewed for accuracy and adequacy and conformance with prescribed procedures.
LEVEL B
Duties are assigned with detailed oral and occasionally written instructions, as to methods and procedures to be followed. Results are usually reviewed in detail and technical guidance is usually available.
LEVEL C
Work is not generally supervised in detail and amount of supervision varies depending upon the assignment. Usually technical guidance is available to review work programs and advise on unusual features of assignments.
Leadership Authority and/or Supervision Exercised
LEVEL A
May assign and check work of one to five technicians or helpers.
LEVEL B
May give technical guidance to one or two junior engineers or technicians assigned to work on a common project.
LEVEL C
May give technical guidance to engineers of less standing or technicians assigned to work on a common project. Supervision over other engineers not usually a regular
or continuing responsibility.
Guide to Entrance Qualifications
LEVEL A
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Applied Science or its equivalent with little or no practical experience.
LEVEL B
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Applied Science or its equivalent, normally with two to three years working experience from the graduation level.
LEVEL C
Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Applied Science or its equivalent, normally with minimum three to five years related working experience from the graduation level.更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
