Via class 'CADD Proficiency Competence Obligation': This is a specialization of the general Competence Obligation, narrowed to the specific context of CADD and computer-assisted design tool proficiency. The existing Competence Obligation covers the general duty to practice only within areas of competence, and this obligation applies that duty to the specific technological context of CADD systems and their limitations.

The change to CADD provides the BER with concerns that require assurance that the professional engineer has the requisite background, education and training to be proficient with the dynamics of CADD including the limitations of current technology.
The key requirement is that an engineer possesses sufficient competence, assumes full responsibility for the work product and carefully directs, controls and reviews the material prepared under the engineer's responsible charge.
