Public works engineers occupy positions of trust and responsibility within the community, working with matters of public safety and public monies across local government and within private sector industry. With that trust comes great responsibility which has led to a framework in which all professional engineering services conducted in Queensland (and progressively within more Australian jurisdictions) must be undertaken by a registered professional. IPWEA-QNT, as an RPEQ assessment entity for the Board of Professional Engineers Qld is committed to upholding the highest professional standards for civil engineering through our assessment scheme.

The Queensland Urban Drainage Manual (QUDM) is an engineering guideline that addresses the technical, legal, regulatory and environmental aspects of effective drainage systems. It provides details of appropriate design methods and computational procedures and covers both hydrologic and hydraulic procedures.

In the information age it is incumbent upon all professional organisations to take control and responsibility for their own information resources and to make that information easily available to end users and practitioners. IPWEA-QNT’s Knowledge Centre achieved global recognition with inclusion in the Library Publishing Director, published by the Library Publishing Coalition in Atlanta, Georgia which details the publishing records of academic and specialist libraries across the world. The Directory awarded the Knowledge Centre 4 on a scale of 1-5 for its ‘stage of publishing efforts’ after just two years following its launch. The Knowledge Centre is fully searchable by subject, key words, speaker/author, event, type, or by date. It includes technical and other engineering information in multiple formats including audio visual recordings, articles, reports, case studies, and recent media relevant to the public works sector for practitioners.

The IPWEA-QNT Supervisor's Handbook offers guidance to supervisors and works staff in preparing, organising, managing, undertaking and completing works projects. It includes methodologies with reference to legislation and regulations applicable for each task.
