I am totally ignorant about what PEs do, and how they become qualified. You need to take a qualifying test, and then work under the supervision of a PE. Then pass a state test and be signed off by a PE. I took the first test Engineer In Training EIT when I graduated university. My problem was I worked in companies without a PE, and most of the computer peripheral makers did not have a PE on staff. So was in a non PE position. Basically a PE says you know what you are doing and are liable for your output. |

I am totally ignorant about what PEs do, and how they become qualified. Undergrad degree, Engineer In Training for 4 years, then take the PE exam. Most fail it at least once. You can't even take the PE test, you are a glorified AutoCAD operator. |
