Contact NCEES at [www.ncees](www.ncees).org to start the evaluation process. This is the only provider we accept.  \nThere is no waiver for this requirement.  \nGraduates with non-engineering BS degree from a regionally accredited school + an ABET MS in engineering  \nIf your BS degree is not in engineering and is from a regionally accredited school, you must submit a Request for Board Evaluation of Related Science form along with your application.  \nExperience Requirement for those who do not have an ABET BS engineering degree  \nAll experience must be verified by PE Supervisors or Associates who were licensed prior to the time being verified. If no PE supervisors or associates were inside or outside the company that you worked with that has personal knowledge of your experience, if there was a graduate engineer in the company, that individual can file an experience verification form and background information form for the board’s review. If the board determines they are substantially equivalent to a PE at the time you worked with them , you will get credit for the experience. If not, no credit will be given.  \nThe Board’s policy on experience prior to graduation is that you must have been in a formal co-op program through the school or it took you 6 years or longer to receive your degree and you were working gaining engineering experience under a PE. The maximum credit the Board will consider is 6 months. Experience must be verified by a PE in order for the Board to review.","cbCaiqxSHiLz4sCQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqxSHiLz4sCQ","pdf",54303,"English","# EI Certification Requirements\n## Four Paths to EI Certification\n## Education and Experience Requirements\n## Graduates of Foreign Universities\n## Related Science and Non-Engineering BS Routes\n## Experience Verification and Board Policy","[{\"question\":\"What are the four main paths for EI Certification?\",\"answer\":\"The document lists Option 1 through Option 4, each specifying different combinations of ABET education, NCEES FE exam passage, NCEES credential evaluation when required, and 2 years of engineering experience under a US PE supervisor.\"},{\"question\":\"What items must applicants submit to be certified, and in what order?\",\"answer\":\"Applicants must submit: an application with all questions answered, an application fee, a transcript directly from the college/university showing degree and received date, a supplemental experience record if experience is required, and experience verification if experience is required.\"},{\"question\":\"How is engineering experience verified when a PE supervisor is not available?\",\"answer\":\"Experience must be verified by PE supervisors or associates licensed before verification.
