Having last been updated in 1992, our constitution and bylaws were a little out of date. The committee of Director Keith Yamatani, Newsletter Editor and Past President Robert Wright, and President Kristen Bowman Kavanagh worked to update the structure and terminology of these documents per current Society recommendations. The board formally presented them to the membership at the April 8th section meeting, and approved them at the May 14th Spring Social. The new versions of the bylaws and constitution can be found in the "About Us" section. |
Per an announcement on June 9th from the PA State Registration Board for Professional Engineers, Land Surveyors and Geologists, all P.E.'s Registered Engineers in the Commonwealth must complete twenty-four (24) continuing education (CE) credits by September 30, 2011 in order to renew their license. In order to accommodate licensees who are just now learning of this deadline, their board has decided to grant a moratorium from disciplinary action for anyone who has not completed the 24 CE credits by the Sept. 30, 2011, renewal date provided any and all CE credits short of the mandatory 24 are completed by April 1, 2012. If you fail to make up the CE deficit by the April 2012 deadline, you will be facing disciplinary action and you will not be permitted to double count CE earned after the September deadline for the following renewal cycle. Please be sure to keep track of your CE credits. |
