Each year, we pull together this data to give a clear picture of what is happening across the professionsand to help guide the national conversation around the path to licensure.  \nThe mission of NCEES is to advance licensure for engineers and surveyors in order to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of the public. Squared is our way of turning those numbers into a story about where licensure stands today and where it is headed.  \nThe data gives us valuable insights into the professions—whether it ’s identifying new areas of growth or understanding shifts in demographics. All of the information represents the most recent NCEES fiscal year, which began October 1, 2024, and ended September 30, 2025.  \nWe hope Squared is a useful resource and reference that will enable you to better understand licensure and its importance to our lives every day.  \nDavy McDowell, P.

They are obligated to work in a manner that safeguards the health, safety, and welfare of the public.  \nSince its creation in 1920, NCEES has worked to facilitate interstate mobility for professional engineers and surveyors by providing its member boards and licensees with services that promote uniformity in licensure laws throughout the United States. These services include uniform exams, model laws and rules, NCEES Records, and NCEES Credentials Evaluations.  \nThe members of NCEES are the engineering and surveying licensing boards from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U. S. Virgin Islands.  \nSome member boards represent only engineering or surveying. The majority of them represent both. Other boards are multiprofessional and regulate additional professions, such as architecture. One board (Illinois SE) regulates structural engineering as a separate licensure category.  \nMost licensing board members are appointed by their  \ngovernors. The makeup of board membership varies according to a jurisdiction ’s statutes (required number of professional engineers, professional surveyors, public members, etc.) .  \n11  \nEngineering only  \n13  \nSurveying only  \nALASKA  \nHAWAII  \nGUAM  \nNORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS  \n1  \nStructural only  \n69  \nNCEES member boards  \n17  \nMultiprofessional  \n28 41  \n27  \nJoint  \nengineering/ surveying  \n72  \nOther licensed professionals  \nP.
