Axiseng Consulting Engineers, a leading independent building services consulting engineering practice, has been awarded Engineers Ireland’s CPD Accredited Employer Standard. The firm, which recently celebrated its 20^th year in operation, specialises in mechanical, electrical, and environmental engineering, advising clients on a wide range sustainable building solutions.

Axiseng was awarded the Standard following its demonstration of significant commitment to fostering professional growth and continuous learning through several innovative initiatives and investments for its team of more than 40 employees. These included the establishment of a cross-functional CPD committee to ensure CPD processes are continuously improved and aligned to the company’s strategic objectives and developing personalised CPD plans for all staff, outlining training objectives over 6 – 36 months. These initiatives have been coupled with the promotion of knowledge-sharing through platforms, as well as technical workshops, peer coaching, webinars, and a mentorship framework, where senior engineers guide junior team members through key transitions.

The Engineers Ireland CPD Accredited Employer Standard is designed to help organisations improve the competence of their engineers and deliver tangible benefits. The Standard seeks to develop employees who are agile and adaptable and creates a workforce that is encouraged to create and innovate, developing new solutions, thereby creating competitive advantages. Organisations that have achieved the Standard find they are better placed to deal with business change and disruption, while also capable of attracting and retaining better workforce talent.

Speaking, following the award of the Standard, Ray Mason, Owner Director at Axiseng Consulting Engineers, said:
“Achieving CPD accreditation is a testament to our commitment to continuous professional development and excellence. This milestone reflects our dedication to fostering a culture of learning, innovation, and collaboration that empowers our team to deliver outstanding results for our clients while aligning with our sustainability and quality goals.”
