Complete continuing education packages built specifically for engineers registered in the State of New York. Designed to fulfill the entire continuing education requirement.

This package was designed specifically for New York geotechnical engineers looking to satisfy all of the Professional Development Hours (PDH) required by the New York State Board for Engineering, Land Surveying and Geology. Currently, engineers must obtain 36 hours of continuing education in each three-year license period. PDH courses should be relevant to the practice of engineering and may include technical, management and ethics topics.

Our New York Geotechnical Engineering package contains a course on engineering ethics and five technical courses that were selected for their ability to maintain, improve, or expand the skills and knowledge relevant to your area of practice.

PDH-Pro is approved by the New York State Board for Engineering, Land Surveying and Geology as a provider of continuing education for professional engineers (#274).

New York no longer requires 18 hours of live courses: As of January 2022, engineers have the option to choose between online courses and webinars in any combination for their continuing education credits. This update marks a significant shift from the previous requirements, as there is no longer a mandated number of “live” credits.
