CHANGE IN LENGTH OF BAN Engineers Australia has been taking serious actions against unethical behaviours. Providing misleading or false information, plagiarised content or fraudulent documents may result in a rejection of the whole application and a ban from submitting another application, including notifying the Department of Home Affairs of the unethical behaviour. Depending on the unethical behaviour, the ban imposed could be either 12 or 24 months. Engineers Australia maintains the right to impose or extend the ban period when the unethical behaviour was found at any stage of the process. This will be deployed soon.
