The Live Online course format is a live, instructor-led webinar that you attend in real time whereas the Ondemand course format is a pre-recorded class that lets you go at your own pace. You still have the ability to ask the instructors questions as an Ondemand student.

When you purchase our Ondemand course, you have the option of adding Onsite (PE Civil only) or Live Online classes for an additional $300 (subject to expiration and availability).

Our attendance policy is tied to students’ eligibility for pass-guarantee registration. Students may miss two Live classes without affecting their ability to apply for our pass-guarantee registration.

For our Live Online classes, watching the recordings after a Live class does not count as class attendance.

Most of the students in our classes have been out of school for a while. We understand this situation and we offer three different learning formats: Live Online, Ondemand, and Onsite (PE Civil only) to meet our students’ needs. Our classes also start with refreshing some basic topics and then advance into more difficult ones. We provide a free basic calculator tutorial as well as a basic engineering math refresher course to get you started. Our classes are designed to enhance the chance of each student passing the exam, no matter when they finished school.

Each state has its own set of qualifications to determine eligibility for the PE exam. Please reach out to your state board for more information.

NCEES changed the exam to reflect on engineers’ professional expertise. You will be asked questions centered around what you know within your specific discipline instead of asking you questions about general civil engineering that may not apply within your profession.

These exams will still be administered in a CBT format. Most exam syllabi are remaining the same, albeit the topics may be in different orders.

Your study efforts should not change significantly, you’ll just be focusing on depth topics instead of the more general breadth topics. You can feel confident signing up with an exam prep provider like School of PE who has tailored their PE Civil exam prep courses to the new format.

The PMP exam is comprised of 180 questions.

The application process involves three steps: (1) confirm you are eligible, (2) gather your information (projects you’ve led and training you’ve completed), and (3) use your information to fill out the application at pmi.org. Once you have completed these steps, your application will be reviewed, and then you will have to pay an exam fee if you are qualified to move forward. Once approved, you can schedule your exam time at a testing site near you or take the exam online.
