Literatures were reviewed and reference to existing professional pathway practices of Engineering Council, United Kingdom through its licensed society such as Royal Aeronautical Society, United Kingdom was an example analyzed. This paper resulted in the proposal of professional development pathway for the CAAM AML holders who are registered at BEM various categories. This paper also clarifies that airworthiness certification of the CAAM AML holders are governed by CAAM. Professional registration of the CAAM AML holder at BEM ensures AML holders complies with the professional code of conduct and ethics as registered engineering professional such as professional engineer (P.Eng).
