The MSA booklets are usually renewed on annual basis. If you are to apply through CDR pathway, the most important pages for you to read are pages 16-20. These pages provide explanation on CDR components and additional documentation you need to provide to Engineers Australia within your application.
Information on Summary Statement preparation in MSA booklet
The MSA booklet also provides information about Summary Statement. Summary Statement is the most important part of the CDR. The brief of all Summary Statement’s units and elements is given on pages 21-24, one page for each Occupational Category. If you are a Professional Engineer, the brief on page 21 would be applicable to you.
This brief of Units and Elements then explained with more details on pages 31-48 for all Occupational Categories. But you don’t need to read information that is not relevant to your Occupational Category. If you are a Professional Engineer, then you need to refer to page 21 where a brief description of Units and Elements is given and then go to pages 32-36 where description of all indicators in given.
In each element there are several indicators. For a successful Summary Statement you need to refer to as many indicators as you can. We would recommend referring to minimum of two indicators for the first and the third parts of Summary Statement and to at least three for the second and the core part of Summary Statement.
