Irbid Branch

The Branch Council was created in the Governorate in 2001 as an Association commission made by the amended Law so the Council replaces the Branch Committee and takes its role under a legislative and executive power aiming at serving the engineering setting within its jurisdiction. The Branch Council is expected to play a key role through its duties and powers as stated in the Law, such as:

To manage the Governorate Branch affairs and collect the fees and other revenues payable to the Association at the Branch.
To form branch committees in the engineers’ gathering places within the Governorate.
To organize the scientific, professional, cultural and social activities of the Governorate Branch.
To maintain the profession’s principles, traditions and ethics and to advocate the Governorate Branch members’ rights.
To settle the professional and technical disputes arising between the members of the Governorate Branch members; to monitor the performance of the engineering offices and companies at the Branch; and to make recommendations with respect thereto to the competent Division or the Engineering Offices & Companies Body Council, as the case may be, to settle the dispute or take the legal actions as necessary.

The Branch Council has three committees as follows:

Ramtha Branch Committee.
Koura Branch Committee.
Bani Kinanah Branch Committee.

Under Article 3 of the Association Law, the Engineers Association has two centers in Amman and Jerusalem, and it shall have the right to open other branches in various cities of the Kingdom.

Based on this authority, the branch committees were formed under the governorate branch councils whose members are elected for three years.

The branch councils and committees are the pillar on which the Association Council depend to regulate the profession and take care of the fellow engineers’ interests in the governorates. Therefore, the Association new Law added several provisions in relation to the branch councils organization, elections and assurance of independence and decentralization in order to incorporate the real democracy in the practice of the Association process and in forming an institutional operation recognizing the missions, powers and objectives vested in the public commissions and branch councils in governorate.

Below are the top goals the branch councils are attempting to achieve:
