Supporting the professions
NCEES is committed to facilitating the licensure process for its member boards, professional engineers and surveyors, and licensure candidates.
This is the "wpengine" admin user that our staff uses to gain access to your admin area to provide support and troubleshooting. It can only be accessed by a button in our secure log that auto generates a password and dumps that password after the staff member has logged in. We have taken extreme measures to ensure that our own user is not going to be misused to harm any of our clients sites.
Measuring professional competence
NCEES entered its second year of computer-based testing (CBT) for the FE and FS exams, which were introduced as CBT exams in January 2014.
Connecting professional practice and education
At its 2015 annual meeting, NCEES voted to approve development of a professional surveying program of distinction to annually recognize up to 10 college surveying programs with $10,000 awards.
Supporting educational initiatives
NCEES promotes licensure to engineering educators and students through many initiatives, including its Engineering Award for Connecting Professional Practice and Education.

From the CEO
“Licensure is an important process in the United States because it allows our state boards to determine a minimum level of competence for individuals who wish to practice.”

Learning from future leaders
NCEES formed the Emerging Engineers and Surveyors Group to connect young engineers and surveyors with NCEES to provide feedback on the licensure process and discuss topics relevant to the future of the engineering and surveying professions.
Collaborating with other organizations
NCEES continued to maintain strong relationships by participating in other societies’ conferences and workshops, building relationships with international organizations, and advancing licensure to ensure the protection of the public welfare.
