The Institute of Corrosion (ICorr) is delighted to announce the successful completion of its first direct assessment for Chartered Engineer (CEng) registration, marking an important milestone in the Institute’s professional registration programme.
We are proud to congratulate Huwaynaa Al-Yahyai, Integrity Team Lead, BP, on achieving CEng status. This achievement recognises her professional expertise, commitment to excellence, and contribution to the engineering profession.
As one of the first applicants to undertake the ICorr direct assessment route, Huwaynaa’s achievement demonstrates both the high standards of the CEng registration process and ICorr’s growing role in supporting professional development and recognition within the corrosion industry.
Reflecting on her experience of the application and assessment journey, Huwaynaa shared:
“Becoming a Chartered Engineer (CEng) through the Institute of Corrosion (ICorr) is more than a credential. It reflects years of disciplined technical growth and hands-on experience in corrosion and integrity management and represents a commitment to delivering sound engineering judgement against internationally recognised standards in high-risk environments.
For me, it is a defining career milestone. It strengthens my credibility and positions me as a leader accountable for the outcomes of my engineering decisions, leading critical integrity decisions, influencing strategy, and being trusted with greater responsibility.
Earning it, though, is just the beginning. It comes with an ongoing commitment to developing as an engineer, leading with integrity, and playing an active part in raising the standard of the profession, whether through mentoring, sharing experiences and best practices, or challenging the way we work and grow as a discipline.”
Once again, our warmest congratulations to Huwaynaa!
