This package was designed specifically for Louisiana engineers looking to satisfy the Professional Development Hours (PDH) required by the Louisiana Professional Engineering and Land Surveying Board. Louisiana professional engineers must earn 15 PDH per calendar year, including at least 1 PDH in professional ethics each calendar year. Engineers who design buildings or building systems, or review or approve plans for buildings or building systems in Louisiana, must also earn at least 4 PDH per calendar year in Life Safety Code, building codes, and/or ADA Accessibility Guidelines.
Our Louisiana Build-Your-Own Engineering package contains two 15-PDH recommended completion plans, one for Year 1 and one for Year 2. Each year includes a fixed ethics course, fixed courses intended to help satisfy the Life Safety Code, building code, and/or ADA Accessibility Guidelines requirement, and 10 PDH of technical courses that you select based on your learning goals and area of practice.
