I'm an engineer by profession. To keep up my licence, I have to adhere to certain requirements in accordance with a code of ethics. As far as the procurement community is concerned, I would say that we aren't there yet. It's a fairly young field. Major changes are, however, happening. There are communities and organizations working on the skill requirements and job profiles in this field of practice. It's still a fairly new profession, though, when you compare it with accounting, engineering, or even law.
