Welcome
Oregon Professional Engineers |

| Oregon PEs
are required to earn 30 PDH biennially. The Oregon Board does
not mandate or pre-approve specific courses or providers. However
the Board does state on the "Professional Development" page of
their website that, "what the Board is going to be looking at is if
the course is technical in nature and pertains to your license."
On the other hand, the Oregon
Administrative Rules, Paragraph 820-10-0635(2)(i) states "PDH units
may be earned as follows: Non-technical educational activities related
to the registrant's employment." |

| Given the
confusion regarding the Board's position on the issue, it would be prudent
to contact the Board for additional clarification before attempting to
complete "non-technical" courses for PDH credit. However,
online courses in "technical areas" are clearly allowed by
the Board provided they pertain to your license.
Over the years, thousands of engineers
have completed online courses that have been accepted by state licensing
boards across the country including Oregon. In fact, we've never had one of our courses
rejected by ANY state engineering board. We're confident
enough to offer an iron-clad money back
guarantee. If any PDHengineer.com online course is
rejected by your state engineering board for any reason, you get your
money back. Period. In our online
course catalog, you will find courses that meet the board's
requirement covering all major areas of engineering practice. We
offer a wide variety of subjects including today's hottest engineering
topics. Our web based seminars
give you the opportunity to attend a live interactive seminar without
leaving your home or office.
Additionally, PDHengineer.com provides a free online
ethics course, Professional

you to the services we offer. There's no obligation to buy other
