Continuing Education Certification Courses for P.E.

Free PDH & CEU resources for professional engineers

Disclaimer: All states have different requirements. Do your own research to confirm if these sources will count for your license(s), as some states are more stringent than others. Some states have restrictions on pre-recorded webinars or require the source to be pre-approved. As a structural engineer these resources will be biased; if you have other recommendations I should add to the list, please let me know and I'd be happy to update!

Course Providers

Gannet Fleming

Wide selection of 50+ courses, most are on-demand and all are free and easy to sign up for.

PDH On-Demand

Noon-Pi

Not on-demand, must pre-register for webinars but one of the few options I've found that offer Ethics PDH hours (required by some states). All 1 credit hour. Not the biggest fan of their webinars, but can't complain about a free resource.

PDH Ethics Live

Texas Board of Professional Engineers

Free Ethics webinar, registration is limited but are offered regularly and a good resource if your license requires an Ethics credit. Not limited to Texas PE's, anyone can register.
