RE: Learning Mechanical Engineering
The biggest block of contributors on this site are from the US but what is required in the US may not match your local.
Typically to be an 'Engineer' you'll need at least the equivalent of a Bachelors degree in relevant engineering field.
In some contexts and locations you may need additional registration or similar to actually be allowed to 'practice Engineering' i.e. be called an Engineer, set up your own business and advertise your services to the public etc.
On the other hand, some locals do not protect the term 'Engineer' the same way and you might be able to get work as an 'Engineer' with a lower qualification equivalent to HNC, HND, Apprenticeship or Associated Degree ...

The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand

Well i am living in Saudi Arabia, yes I do understand that level of engineering varies.
that's nice that major contributors in this forum are from US.
yes to be an Engineer, need to be equivalent to bachelor degree in that field.
well no idea of 'Practice engineer'....
what if i start with lower qualification levels just to get to know about the course and later on apply to Bachelors? like EIT they are offering courses for non-engineers; http://www.eit.edu.au/professional-certificate-com...
But HND and HNC are not online/distance provided to us people who are living in Saudi Arabia, unfortunately ;

The courses will be already defined.

They can surely tell you how they got where they are.

He got from sweeping to machining by offering to help. First he was dressing keys, then he was keeping an eye on the CNC lathe, until he was doing it all.
He got from master machinist to designer by learning the CAD software and reading a chapter of Machinery's Handbook every morning. MH is dense but there is a great deal of mechanical engineering coursework represented in there. While this was nowhere near as broad as a BSME, it served him well. I'm sure if MH does not track your interest in mechanical engineering, there are other reference books that do.
