Status of the Bachelor Degree
Plus 30
Credit (B+30) Issue
**
Please Read **
The Alaska State Board of
Registration for Architects, Engineers, and Land Surveyors
(ALES) voted against the NCEES Modal Law requiring 150
university credits (B+30 or Bachelors plus 30 credits) to
sit for the PE exam.
Prior to the NCEES annual
meeting in Alaska last September, the AELS Board contacted
the Alaska Section asking for IEEEs position on the matter.
We responded that IEEE did not have an official public
policy on the subject.
The Alaska Section Executive
Committee would like to urge the Educational Activities
Board not to endorse the NCEES Modal Law requiring B+30. If
you support or are opposed to the Alaska Section speaking
against this movement please let us know.
It is very important that we
hear from you. Please see the website for
more
information, and e-mail
jason.reed "ąt" ieee.org
for your response.

Alaska Section Online Community
You will soon receive an
e-mail invite to the Alaska Section Online Community, or
forum. Unlike the website which is public and read-only, the
online forum is a collaborative environment where members
can post messages, share images, vote on polls, etc. The
system will be restricted to members of the IEEE Alaska
Section. We hope you'll join and help us all stay in
contact.
