Scope Note
[proethica-intermediate-extended] A member of the public or prospective client who reads and relies upon an engineering firm's marketing brochure to assess the qualifications of its personnel, reasonably assuming that any individual titled 'Engineer' holds an engineering degree or professional license, and who is therefore harmed by misrepresentative use of the title for non-degreed or unlicensed staff.
