NCEES needs help: take a survey to review their exam contents

Jun. 5, 2018

NCEES seeks volunteers for Fundamentals of Engineering exam content review

The survey can be completed in 20–30 minutes and can be taken by PEs, EITs and those in the engineering profession without either.

NCEES is currently seeking engineering professionals to participate in a content review for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE aka EIT) exam. The results of this survey will be used to update the specifications for the exam, which is typically the first step in the process leading to professional engineering licensure.

NCEES requires a cross section of professionals—including licensed professional engineers and academics teaching engineering courses—from all engineering disciplines to complete an online survey about the fundamental knowledge and skills necessary for a recent engineering graduate to work in a manner that safeguards the health, safety, and welfare of the public. 

“These studies help NCEES ensure its licensing exams remain relevant to current professional practice,” explained Director of Exam Services Tim Miller, P.E. “The value of this content review depends on the number of people who participate, so NCEES is eager to get input from as many engineering professionals as possible.”

This confidential survey is open until August 20, 2018.
