Below is a call for participation from the
National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES):
NCEES is currently seeking metallurgical and materials engineers to participate in a professional activities and knowledge study, or PAKS, for the PE Metallurgical and Materials exam. The results of this online survey will be used to update the content of the exam, which is a process that occurs every six to eight years. If you are a licensed professional engineer, we would appreciate your input by completing an online survey.
The survey can be completed in 20–40 minutes. Participation in the survey is voluntary. Your answers are anonymous, and responses will be reported only in the aggregate. You will be asked to rate the importance of the knowledge areas required by a newly licensed professional metallurgical and materials engineer, as well as the tasks performed to practice in a manner that safeguards the health, safety, and welfare of the public. The survey will also include demographic and professional questions that will be used to assess sample representativeness.
Ctrl-Click here for access to the online survey.
The survey will be open until May 8, 2023. Please help us spread the word about this important study by sharing this email with any colleagues who are licensed metallurgical and materials engineers. NCEES sincerely thanks you for your contribution to ensure the PE Metallurgical and Materials exam is reflective of the current practice of P.E.s.
For more information, contact NCEES Exam Development Engineer Andy Bindewald, P.E., at abindewald@ncees.org.
If you a licensed metallurgical and materials engineer, please consider participating in their survey.
