Practicing Engineers Don't Need This
 

I agree with many of the previous comments as to why this requirement is not needed. I am registered in multiple states and find the varying requirements not only burdensome but expensive. As a practicing consulting engineer I learn much more by the way of daily experience than the available courses can teach. We don't need another regulatory requirement to add to our administrative tasks. Let us spend our time applying our engineering knowledge solving problems for the public good.
