Professional qualifications and relevant experience are a must. The other factors seem like unnecessary distractions. Unless the engineer is a Jedi, then all bets are off!

This is a no-brainer! The CAE needs to make sure the engineer is qualified and not just trying to cash in on the engagement.

Professional certification and relevant experience are key factors the CAE should consider. Compensation and other ongoing services are less relevant for assessing the engineer's skills.
