I'm working on getting myself in there as well. I don't think we have the legal frameworks set up yet. Even where I'm from the professional engineering guilds

  In the UK the legal framework is 'chartership', and 'chartered' is the legally protected word.

    In Canada it varies by province and most of them protect, 'Professional Engineer'. Some are going after 'Engineer' (in the software context) entirely but this had been tested in the 90s and didn't work. I mean that, at least in Canada, there aren't strong legal frameworks that require P.Eng to sign off on projects, to manage development teams, the protect their jobs, liability, etc. So far from others who've received the designation it's mostly "just paper" for now.
