This online engineering PDH course provides design guidance for BMPs referred to as vegetative biofilters. Three different types of these on-site BMPs are described in this course and include grass swales, vegetated filter strips and bioretention cells.
The goals and objectives of best management practice (BMP) for stormwater management are as diverse as the situations to which they are applied.
This 10 PDH online course is applicable to civil and geotechnical engineers, site developers, and contractors as well as design and construction personnel involved with the planning and design of stormwater systems.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Overview of grass swales, vegetated filter strips and bioretention cells
- Review general design considerations associated with vegetative biofilters
- Analytical procedures for runoff volumes and rates, and sediment and nutrient loading (runoff and loading calculation examples included)
- Factors affecting vegetative filter strips
- Design guidance and procedures for vegetative filter strips
- Grass swale design guidance and considerations
- Guidance on bioretention cells
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Sections 1 through 7 of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Publication EPA/600/R-04/121A, "Stormwater Best Management Practice Design Guide: Volume 2 Vegetative Biofilters".

This online engineering PDH course provides general guidance to help business owners understand how to comply with the Department of Justice’s Americans with Disability Act (ADA) and the 2010 Standards, the design standards for accessible buildings.
The ADA applies to both the built environment and to policies and procedures that affect how a business provides goods and services to its customers. Using this guidance, small business owners or managers can ensure that they will not unintentionally exclude people with disabilities and will know when they need to remove barriers in existing facilities.
This 1 PDH online course is intended for engineers involved in the planning, design or operation of a small business.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding who is covered by the ADA
- Understanding the general non-discrimination requirements
- Learning how to make the built environment accessible
- Knowing how to assess a facility
- Training staff on ADA requirements
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the course document titled, “ADA Update: A Primer for Small Business,” March, 2011.
Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of ten (10) questions to earn 1 PDH credit. The quiz will be based on this ADA publication.
Upon successful completion of the quiz, print your Certificate of Completion instantly. (Note: if you are paying by check or money order, you will be able to print it after we receive your payment.)

This online engineering PDH course provides information on effective ergonomic interventions that help lower the physical demands of manual material handling (MMH) work.
Manual material handling work contributes to a large percentage of over half a million cases of musculoskeletal disorders reported annually in the United States. Musculoskeletal disorders often involve strains and sprains to the lower back, shoulders, and upper limbs. They can result in protracted pain, disability, medical treatment, and financial stress for those afflicted with them.
Effective ergonomic interventions can lower the physical demands of MMH work tasks, thereby lowering the incidence and severity of the musculoskeletal injuries they can cause. Their potential for reducing injury-related costs alone make ergonomic interventions a useful tool for improving a company’s productivity, product quality, and overall business competitiveness.
This 3 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, managers and supervisors who are interested in learning more about ergonomic interventions that reduce the physical demands of manual material handling work.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with the basics of manual material handling
- Understanding the importance of improving the workplace
- Understanding the conditions associated with the development of injuries in manual material handling tasks
- Learning about the different types of ergonomic improvements
- Knowing easier ways to manually lift, lower, fill, or empty containers
- Exploring alternatives to the manual handling of individual containers

This online engineering PDH course will establish the relationship between the actions of a licensing board for professional engineers and the Constitutional right of free speech.
This course discusses the background and findings of a legal case that arose when a state licensing board for professional engineers attempted to restrict the right of an engineer from speaking about a public safety issue. Actual legal documents and associated correspondence are discussed, and their implications analyzed.
The 1 PDH online course is intended for all registered professional engineers wanting to know about the relation between constitutionally protected free speech and the powers of a licensing board for professional engineers.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the value of free speech in discovering the best solution to technical problems
- Realizing the difference between protected and unprotected speech
- Knowing an example in which the actions of a PE licensing board was limited by the Constitutional right of free speech
- Familiarizing with the meaning of a board letter that announces the opening of an investigation
- Understanding the meaning and use of a Notice to Impose a Civil Penalty
- Understanding the significance of working outside the context of an employment or contractual relationship
