State Requirements
Montana
Info
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
- Professional Engineers in Montana are required to complete 30 PDHs every two years.
- Renewal Dates
- For all engineers, the license renewal deadline is June 30 of even-numbered years.
- PDH Carryover
- Engineers may transfer a maximum of 15 PDHs into the subsequent renewal period.
- Board Pre-Approval
- The Board does not mandate pre-approval for courses or providers. Engineers need to independently verify if the chosen activities satisfy the Board's criteria.
- Approved Content
- Eligible courses must aim to sustain, enhance, or broaden the skills and knowledge related to the engineer's professional practice. While self-study is recognized, it is capped at 10 PDHs per renewal cycle and typically involves structured exploration of new technical information without a final examination. Our site's courses, which necessitate passing a quiz for certificate issuance, are exempt from this limitation and not categorized as self-study.
- Approved Activities
- The Board acknowledges the successful completion of online courses for continuing education credit.
- Notes
- Engineers holding dual licenses must still meet the 30 PDH requirement biennially, with at least one-third of those hours dedicated to each professional domain. It is essential to keep comprehensive records of PDH completion for a minimum of 3 years. We support this requirement by enabling instant access and printing of certificates after concluding a course or webinar. Rest assured, your certificates of completion are securely stored for at least ten years, accessible anytime through your online account.
