对 EA 来说，2016 年及以后毕业的专业才认可。
Holders of Chinese accredited qualifications completed in or after 2016 will be eligible for Membership of Engineers Australia as well as Migration Skills Assessment via the accredited qualifications pathways.
上图里 Accredited Programs 表格里的 year 和 validity period 是 CEEAA 定义的，这个有效期限是评估时确定的，评估结果有三种，passed + 6年，例如清华；还有 passed + 3 年，大部分学校；没通过的可以重新申请1年期的，暂时没有。
The Accreditation Decision
There are three kinds of accreditation decision:
(1) Accreditation Passed with validity period of 6 years.
(2) Accreditation Passed with validity period of 3 years.
(3) Accreditation failed.
The programs which failed accreditation can re-apply for accreditation 1 year later.
为了保持认证状态，有效期3年的需要每年提交报告，有效期6年的每半年就需要提交一次报告。
15 年入学的，如果毕业后这个学校还在列表上就不需要 CDR 。一般来说评估通过的学校会想尽办法维持自己的认证状态。前面通过认证后面被取消的情况比较少，当然，这个学生就没法操心，只能祈祷了。
The institutions to which the accredited programs belong should study the problems and deficiency pointed out in the Accreditation Report and take appropriate actions to improve the programs.
The institution with the accreditation validity period of 3 years should annually submit an Improvement Report to the program accreditation sub committee and the Secretariat.
The institution with the accreditation validity period of 6 years should biannually submit an Improvement Report to the program accreditation sub committee and the Secretariat.
If the institution fails to submit the Improvement Report on time, the Secretariat will inform a deadline. If the institution still fails to submit the report before the deadline, its accreditation validity comes to the end.
If the accredited program has significant changes on curriculum system, academic staff, and operation conditions and so on during the accreditation validity period, it should apply for re-accreditation of the changes to the Secretariat immediately. If the program passes the re-accreditation, it can keep the former accreditation status to the end of the validity period; otherwise the validity period of the former accreditation comes to the end. The re-accreditation should follow the former accreditation procedure, but can have some simplification in accordance with the specific situation.
CEEAA can randomly select some programs in accreditation validity period to pay a return visit when needed. The return visit aims to review the maintenance and improvement of the accredited programs. The return visit should follow the former accreditation procedure, but can have some simplification in accordance with the specific situation.
If the accredited program wants to continue the accreditation validity period, it should apply for a new accreditation at least one year before the accreditation validity ends.
