Industrial and Floria Laws, Rules & Ethics 18 PDH Discount Package 1

This online engineering PDH course presents a discussion of the general, architectural and structural considerations applicable to the design of hydroelectric power plant structures. It is intended for guidance on establishing minimum criteria in the planning and design of such structures.

The engineering of hydroelectric projects is a highly specialized filed, particularly the engineering design and operational activities. 

This 4 PDH online course is applicable to civil, structural and geotechnical engineers, as well as design and construction personnel involved with the planning and design of hydroelectric power plant structures.

This online engineering PDH course provides a basic understanding of instrumentation and control necessary for safe operation and maintenance of energy facilities and their support systems. In particular, this course describes the principles of operation for control systems used in evaluating and regulating changing conditions in a process.

This 5 DH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of process controls.

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance about the selection process for snow removal and ice control equipment.

The selection process involves three components: identifying the type of equipment for a specific task, determining the number of such equipment, and using the recommended equipment specification to better ensure that the equipment performs the required task.

Airport operators should maintain runways and taxiways if possible, to a “no worse than wet” condition during winter storms. To meet this challenge, the purchase of snow and ice control equipment will not only require significant financial commitments, but also require careful planning and a fundamental understanding of snow and removal equipment.

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance for implementing specific controls over radioactive materials in accordance with the department of energy regulations DOE-STD-1098-2017.

The information presented in this course focuses on radioactive material identification, storage, control, release, transportation, and waste management. These measures should be implemented by affected line managers, workers, and support staff to ensure proper fulfillment of their radiological control responsibilities.

This online engineering PDH course, organized into three parts, presents information about the U.S. Department of Energy’s radiological standards.

Part 1 – Administrative Control Levels and Dose Limits. To accomplish DOE's objective of maintaining individual doses well below regulatory limits, challenging numerical administrative control levels should be established below the regulatory limits to administratively control and help minimize individual and collective radiation dose. These control levels should be multi-tiered with increasing levels of authority required to approve higher administrative control levels.

Part 2 – Contamination Control and Control Levels. Control of radioactive contamination is achieved by using engineered controls and worker performance to contain contamination at the source, reducing existing areas of contamination, and promptly decontaminating areas that become contaminated.

Part 3 – Posting. Radiological postings are intended to alert individuals to the presence of radiation and radioactive materials and to aid them in controlling exposures and preventing the spread of contamination. The types of postings required vary based on the application.

This online PDH course is a FL approved Engineering Laws, Rules and Ethics course and is being offered by Continuing Education and Development, Inc, a FL approved Continuing Education Provider (CEP No. 0004183).

The first part of this course begins with an overview of the Laws and Rules governing the practice of engineering in the State of Florida (Chapter 1) including:

• Florida Statutes, Chapter 455, “Department of Business and Professional Regulation”
• Florida Statutes, Chapter 471, “Engineering”
• Florida Administrative Code, 61G15, F.A.C., “Florida Board of Professional Engineers”

Then it continues to address the rules amended, adopted or otherwise repealed from 61G15, F.A.C. (Chapter 2) as well as the changes to Chapters 455, F.S. and 471, F.S. (Chapter 3), within the preceding biennium, as applicable.

The second part of this course presents engineering ethics and the principles of professional responsibility (Chapter 4). It further illustrates the application of Chapters 455 and 471, F.S. to a randomly selected set of ethical and disciplinary cases (Chapter 5).

This 2 PDH online engineering course is applicable to Professional Engineers licensed in the State of Florida and who are required to demonstrate continuing professional competency in the Florida Laws, Rules and Ethics as a condition of license renewal. For each renewal period, every licensee must complete eighteen (18) professional development hours as follows:

• One hour must relate to this chapter and the rules adopted under this chapter;
• One hour must relate to professional ethics;
• Four hours must relate to the licensee’s area of practice; and
• The remaining hours may relate to any topic pertinent to the practice of engineering.
