Sponsor’s Statement
You have been asked to sponsor an application for validation as a
European Geologist. This letter Sponsor’s Statement should be
completed and returned to the applicant in a signed and sealed
envelope marked ‘confidential’ or, preferably, passed direct to the
National Vetting Committee.
Sponsorship of an applicant is a serious undertaking and by doing this
you are making a professional judgement of the applicant’s ability to
meet and maintain the very high standards that are required in the
geoscience professions. You are, in effect, acting in the capacity of
a ‘competent person’ by evaluating the applicant’s professional
standing and reputation. If you feel that the applicant is not yet
ready for award of the European Geologist title we hope that you will
tell them so and then help them to gain the additional experience or
understanding necessary for a successful application.
In order to act as a sponsor
*
You should have personal knowledge of the applicant and their work
for at least three years and he or she must not be related to you.
*
You should satisfy yourself that the applicant meets the criteria
set out in the EFG regulations.
*
An applicant’s sponsors should, wherever possible, be European
Geologists. The EFG may accept, as two of the three sponsors, a
Chartered Member of a recognised professional body whose standards
and levels are at least as high as those of the EFG.
1.
EXPECTED LEVEL OF UNDERSTANDING
An applicant for validation as a European Geologist is required to
satisfy the EFG that they meet the following criteria:
*
an ability to understand the complexities of geology and of
geological processes in space and time in relation to the
applicant’s speciality;
*
an ability to use geoscience information to generate predictive
models;
*
an ability to communicate clearly verbally and in writing;
*
an understanding of the professional and ethical responsibilities
of a professional geologist;
*
a commitment to developing and maintaining expertise as a
professional geologist through a programme of Continuing
Professional Development that is relevant to the speciality and
professional work of the applicant; and
*
a knowledge of and commitment to safe working practices in
accordance with good practice and relevant statutory requirements
applicable to the applicant’s discipline or area of work.
The applicant must demonstrate that he/she has obtained sufficient
knowledge and experience to be able to work independently and to be
capable of supervising others. An applicant who is only able to
undertake routine activities or to require extensive supervision would
not meet the requirements for award of the title of European
Geologist.
An applicant is unlikely to meet the requirements for award of the
tile of European Geologist without at least eight years of experience
comprising university level studies and subsequent post-graduation
experience, of which at least four years is relevant professional
experience.
