  Course Approval	The Board does not require pre-approval for providers or specific courses. Each engineer must determine whether an activity meets the Board’s requirements
  Course Content	The Nevada Board website states that the “requirement for continuing professional competency (CPC) is intended to protect the public by reinforcing the need for lifelong learning in order to stay more current with changing technology, equipment, procedures, processes, tools, and established technical and business standards. The rule specifying qualifying CPC activities was designed to give flexibility in selecting among a broad range of subjects that are intended to strengthen or maintain competency in technical, managerial (business), or ethical fields.” Courses must “maintain, improve, or expand the skills and knowledge relevant to (the engineer’s) discipline”
  Online Courses	Internet-based training is accepted provided a graded quiz is required. EZpdh’s online courses meet this criteria
  PDH Carryover	A maximum of 15 PDH may be carried forward into the next renewal period
  Additional	For dual licensees, the number of PDH units required shall be 18, at least one-third of which shall be obtained in each profession PDH completion records must be maintained for a minimum of 3 years.
