Search for, "Member grade". The only path for a large portion of all people being called "software engineers" would not even be considered for 6 years.

Those 6 years would probably be the most formative in educating them of their ethics and responsibilities. A service I am not sure IEEE really prioritizes anyways.

IEEE can do whatever it wants. They don't certify anyone as a professional engineer. That is NSPE's job in the US.

Yeah, I am apparently not qualified to receive anything based on experience. https://www.nspe.org/membership/types-membership

Or if I want to pay them to get a certification no one cares about, I can. https://www.nspe.org/resources/education/exam-review-and-pre...

The system in that regard is broken.
