Similar to doctors, a professional body of engineers decides who can use the term and in what situations. Also, this professional body decides who can be members of their organization. Similar to that, IESL can decide who can be the members of their organization.In the province of Ontario in Canada according to their Professional Engineers Act, there can be fines in the $10k-$50k range per instance representing yourself as a licensed engineer (PEng) when you're not.<a href="https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90p28" target="_blank">https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/90p28</a>They have similar strict guidelines if you want to join The Canadian Council of Professional Engineers (CCPE).Here's an example where even Microsoft had to give up the term engineer in their professional certifications in Canada because they went against the guidelines of CCPE:<a href="https://www.canadianconsultingengineer.com/engineering/microsoft-gives-up-the-title-engineer-in-canada/1000000701/" target="_blank">https://www.canadianconsultingengineer.com/engineering/microsoft-gives-up-the-title-engineer-in-canada/1000000701/</a>I guess this is similar in other countries (UK, Australia, Germany) as well.According to the International Engineering Alliance (IEA), International Professional Engineering Agreement (IPEA) and Washington Accord (WA), IESL is the official body representing professional engineers in  Sri Lanka. (So IESL can decide who can be members and who can get charted status.)</blockquote>
