PROPOSED CONTINUING EDUCATION/ see below
 

The first state that started the continuing education for my P.E. certification, (State of West Virginia), resulted in my canceling my licience in that State.  YOU MAY WANT TO CKECK THE LATEST PUBLISHED LISTING OF ENGINEERS WHO HAVE CANCELED THEIR LICIENCE.   I am too busy practicing Engineer, in several states, to be harassed, by what I consider "just another layer of red tape,and cost to our system".  Our present system of regulating Engineering has proven itself, even when compared to the global  market.  LEAVE IT ALONE.
