Welcome to the IED, the home for designers working in engineering and product design.
Subscription reminders for 2021 have now gone out. If we had an email address on file you will have received it via email (please check your Spam folder). As we have limited staff in the office please be patient if you are trying to get through on the phone. You might find it easier to pay online.
If we don't have an email address for you your subscription reminder will arrive in the post.
Due to the sheer volume of payments coming in it may take a while for your receipt to be sent out. Please bear with us!
COVID-19
As everyone is well aware, the current situation relating to COVID-19 is resulting in a change of working practice for everyone. We are managing this at IED HQ, ensuring the health and wellbeing of our staff and volunteers by limiting social contact and encouraging working from home. This inevitably means that some aspects of the service you expect from us may be interrupted - please be patient at this time, we will continue to work hard at responding to enquiries, processing applications and generally being as helpful as we can, it may just take a little longer to get things done.
Membership of the IED is open to all who work in, study, manage, research, teach or practice design. Membership is welcomed at all grades of academic study and levels of expertise. The purpose of the IED is to support our members to achieve their career goals by mentoring and guiding designers to the appropriate grade of professional registration.
The first step to achieving this professional registration is to complete our simple application form.
