The Pelinese All-Engineering Union (Stelossian: Пелинский Всеинженерский Союз, Pelinskiy Vseinzhenerskiy Soyuz), often referred to by its Stelossian language acronym PVIS, is a partially state-funded federation of Pelinese professional associations and research organizations in the fields of engineering and closely adjacent sciences. Its stated purpose is to facilitate academic research and the dissemination of technical knowledge in Pelinai, as well as to ensure the proper and orderly practice of engineering professions.

Significant activities of the PVIS include the coordination of activities and research-sharing between member organizations, the issuance of engineering certifications in Pelinai, the evaluation and accreditation of university engineering education programs, and the distribution of Pelinese state-funded grants provided for research and other purposes. Member organizations under the PVIS receive access to Union-held umbrella conferences, large amounts of taxpayer funding for research, publishing, and training activities, and other significant financial and prestige benefits in exchange for compliance with a battery of public access requirements and CPI-bound price caps on certain products and services.

The Pelinese All-Engineering Union is a member institution of the Pelograd Accord on mutual recognition of academic accreditation for engineering and engineering technology programs; as such, degrees awarded by PVIS-accredited programs retain their full validity in other signatory countries.

History

Activities

The primary tasks of the Pelinese All-Engineering Union are to distribute state research & other funding, to administer licensing for engineers working in Pelinai, to organize interdisciplinary activities between multiple professional associations, and to perform accreditation functions for Pelinese university courses in engineering disciplines. Beyond these core activities and its insurance of member organizations’ compliance with the requirements applied to state-funded professional bodies, the PVIS generally leaves functions such as the operation of professional and academic journals, the creation of technical standards, and the production of continuing education courses to the organizations under it.

Accreditation and certifications

The Pelinese All-Engineering Union is the Pelograd Accord-registered organization responsible for performing accreditation of university engineering courses offered by Pelinese universities and for managing Pelinai’s engineering licensure system. Within the framework and requirements set by the Accord, it manages content and academic rigor requirements for degree programs, the evaluation system for providing engineering licenses, and the continuing education requirements for maintaining an engineering license.

Conferences

While most academic conferences and trade shows organized under the umbrella of the Pelinese All-Engineering Union are the responsibility of its various member organizations, it also organizes a limited number of annual and biannual conferences for topics that pertain to broader subjects than are adequately covered by a single engineering discipline; these primarily include the annual All-Pelinese Engineering Research Conference, which covers all subjects of engineering, and the quarterly National Specialized Engineering Conference, which covers research on a specific topic chosen to be the theme of the conference. The annual Pelinese All-Industrial Convention trade show is also jointly organized by the PVIS with the involvement of the Pelinese Ministry of Economics and the Alliance of Pelinese Heavy Industries.

In addition to organizing conferences and trade shows, the PVIS also attends most engineering-related conventions held in Pelinai and a handful of those held abroad through representatives.

Funding

One of the basic purposes of the Pelinese All-Engineering Union is to relay government-provided research and other educational funding from the Pelinese Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology to the many professional associations under it. PVIS members agree to a substantial number of conditions in exchange for this funding, primary including:

  • Open access release of all research papers, technical reports, and other documents published by or through the professional association
  • Open access release of all technical standards created and set by the professional association
  • inflation-pegged price caps on certain services, such as continuing education courses

Publications

The Pelinese All-Engineering Union possesses its own publishing house, the All-Pelinese Engineering Press, which is responsible for publishing and printing materials produced by both the PVIS and its member associations: this primarily includes engineering textbooks & reference books, technical reports & position papers, engineering case studies, and printed copies of PVIS-affiliated academic journals & conference proceedings, as well as various other types of miscellaneous materials. It also prints the professional magazine Pelinese Engineer, which covers technical advances, regulations & standards, business climate changes, and other topics relevant to engineers in Pelinai.

The PVIS is currently the largest publisher of technical reference books in Pelinai, with a total market share of roughly 61% compared to universities’ 33% and commercial publishers’ 6%. It also publishes 21% of all engineering textbooks written in Pelinai, as well as 93% of all academic research conducted in Pelinai pertaining to engineering and materials science.
