State Requirements

Mississippi

Based on your state requirements, on-demand courses are accepted in your state. Our courses are structured to meet NCEES Continuing Professional Competency (CPC) guidelines — the nationally recognized standard for continuing education. Each course includes a final graded assessment and completion certificate, giving you the documentation you need for your state's renewal audit. Engineers are responsible for confirming their specific board requirements.

PDH Hours Required: In Mississippi, Professional Engineers are mandated to complete 15 hours of professional development annually. This commitment ensures they continually enhance their skills and stay current with industry advancements.
Renewal Dates: Engineers should mark December 31 on their calendars as the annual deadline for license renewal, creating a consistent rhythm for professional development.
PDH Carryover: Engineers can carry over up to 15 PDH to the next renewal period. However, it's important to note that excess credits earned in ethics training do not carry forward.
Board Pre-Approval: Rather than restricting engineers with a pre-approved list of courses or providers, the Board allows engineers to choose their professional development activities, trusting them to adhere to the requirements.
Approved Content: Eligible courses or activities must have well-defined goals and objectives designed to uphold, advance, or extend professional skills and knowledge related to the practice of engineering. Notably, engineers must undertake at least 1 PDH of ethics training every two years, fostering a commitment to integrity within the profession.
Approved Activities: With no restrictions on the number of hours, online continuing education is accepted, offering flexibility for engineers to develop their skills and knowledge in a manner convenient for their diverse schedules.
Notes: Dual license holders are required to accumulate 18 PDH units, with a minimum of one-third of these credits earned in activities specifically related to each profession. Record keeping is essential, as documentation of completed PDHs must be retained for at least 3 years. Our site assists professionals by offering immediate certificate access and printing following course or webinar completion, as well as secure, long-term storage of certificates for at least ten years, accessible through your personal online account at any time.
