| State | What the state says | Last checked |
|---|---|---|
| Florida | If this is not your first renewal of a Florida PE license, the Florida Board of Professional Engineers requires 18 hours of continuing education every two years. Part of it must cover Florida laws and rules, ethics and your area of practice. Some new licensees need only a laws and rules course, an ethics course and the fee for their first renewal. | |
| Indiana | If you were first licensed in Indiana before the current biennium and keep your PE registration active, you need 30 hours of continuing education (CE) each biennium to renew. Ethics and Indiana statutes and rules are required topics. New licensees need fewer hours, and inactive holders need none. | |
| Maryland | If you hold a Maryland PE license, you report 16 hours of professional development for each two-year term when you renew, but not for your first renewal. Part of the hours must cover ethics, the code of conduct, standards of practice or care, or Maryland engineering law. | |
| New Jersey | If you hold only a New Jersey PE license and are past your first renewal period, you need 24 CPC credits for each biennial renewal. Some of them must be in professional practice ethics. New licensees and engineers who are also land surveyors follow other rules. | |
| New York | New York’s Education Department says licensed professional engineers must complete 36 hours of continuing education in each three-year period, unless you qualify for an exception. New York also requires professional ethics every period. |
