Could everyone please give me some advice on which direction I should pursue?

I have a master’s degree in chemical engineering and I have 5 years of work experience. I have been working on projects in foreign-owned factories; I haven’t worked on large-scale projects (new constructions or expansions), but I have handled many renovation projects. I want to test out some things, but I don’t know where to start. Could those who have experience give me some advice? 1. Take the exam to become a first-level construction engineer. This is hard to pass. 2. Register as a equipment engineer. The exams are quite in-depth; one has to consult the formulas from textbooks used in school, and basic courses are also covered. I don’t know what’s the use of taking the exam? 3. Registered cost engineer. Since I often have to review the quotes from construction teams, I find this to be somewhat useful. A friend said that with this qualification one can look for a job at a company on the client side, but I think since I don’t have any background in cost estimation, it would be like starting from scratch there too, right? Does any experienced person have any insights?
In terms of cost-effectiveness, the first-level constructor qualification is likely the easiest to obtain
Reply to 2# sjxwolf: What the brother means is: once you obtain the registration as a construction engineer, can you list it under Party B? So it has a good cost-performance ratio?
The money earned by those who hold a First-Class Constructor qualification is quite substantial
Reply to 3# youfirstcyt: The requirement for a Level 1 construction engineer in the chemical industry now corresponds to the mechanical and electrical engineering field; the fee is around 22,000 to 25,000 yuan per year. The service involves providing the certificate without assigning it officially; if involved in specific projects, an additional fee applies
A equipment engineer is the right choice for you; otherwise, you’ll regret it.
Reply to 6# sun-rock: It seems you have experience in this area. Could you explain it?
