All Required 30 PDH for only $374
Regularly $630 – Save $256 (41% off)
Complete continuing education packages built specifically for engineers registered in the State of Nevada. Designed to fulfill the entire continuing education requirement.
This package was designed specifically for Nevada geotechnical engineers looking to satisfy all of the Professional Development Hours (PDH) required by the Nevada Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. Nevada engineers must complete 30 PDH during each biennial license renewal period, including two hours in professional ethics and one hour covering the provisions of Nevada Revised Statutes Chapter 625 and Nevada Administrative Code Chapter 625. PDH courses should be relevant to the practice of engineering and may include technical, management, ethics, and state statutes and regulations topics.
Our Nevada Geotechnical Engineering package contains a course on Nevada statutes and regulations, a course on engineering ethics, and five technical courses that were selected for their ability to maintain, improve, or expand the skills and knowledge relevant to your area of practice.
Note: This package includes 31 PDH credits. Nevada requires 30 PDH for license renewal, including 2 PDH in ethics and 1 PDH covering Nevada statutes and regulations. We included the required Nevada statutes and regulations course in addition to the geotechnical engineering courses in this package, so you will receive one more PDH than the minimum required.
