PROFILE: My journey to Professional Registration - Sisekho Sako

Professional Engineering Technologist Sisekho Sako, shares her journey towards Professional Registration. An aspirational journey, that she once perceived as elusive, has now become a reality.

Before I set out on my journey toward Professional Registration, I mistakenly believed that it was an unattainable dream for municipal engineers. I initially thought I needed to transition back to the private sector to embark on this journey. However, my perception has since changed because Private Public Partnerships (PPPs) have made registration a reality for all engineers, including those in the municipal sector.

This journey has positively impacted my career. The need for professional validation motivated me to improve myself and work diligently toward registration. However, the journey was not without obstacles. I had completed my report to register as a professional engineering technician but had to delay my submission and register as a professional engineering technologist instead. It felt like a minor setback.

I highly encourage all hardhatPROFESSIONALS to embark on this journey because Registered Professionals offer a wealth of knowledge. To better equip themselves for the journey hardhatPROFESSIONALS should take advantage of the various courses offered by numerous voluntary associations.

Sisekho Sako is a Professional Engineering Technologist (PrTech Eng) who possesses a decade of professional experience in municipal infrastructure, augmented by an additional three years of private sector experience.
