REGISTER NOW FOR PE, FE EXAM REVIEW COURSES!

It’s official! ASPE is partnering with the Minnesota Society of Professional Engineers (MnSPE) to bring you the review courses that many of you have requested. PE Civil, PE Mechanical and Fundamentals courses are taught by licensed PEs with background and expertise in the various subject areas. If you don’t pass the exam after taking the course, we guarantee that you may take a second MnSPE-provided review course FREE, provided you attend at least 80% of the classes and complete at least 80% of the homework.

Courses for PE-Civil, PE-Mechancal and FE Review will be offered via webinar.

Registration information and deadlines, Webinar system requirements, online discounts for books and additional details can be found at http://www.mnspe.org/professional_dev/pe_review.shtml.

If your company would like to offer its facilities to employees (no limits as to the number of participants), the fee will be $2500 per site for the PE course review and $1800 per site for the FE review.
