This online engineering PDH course describes the hazards of electrical work and basic approaches to working safely.
Whenever working with power tools or on electrical circuits, there is a risk of electrical hazards, especially electrical shock. Anyone can be exposed to these hazards at home or at work. Workers are exposed to more hazards because job sites can be cluttered with tools and materials, fast-paced, and open to the weather. Risk is also higher at work because many jobs involve electric power tools.
Electrical trades workers must pay special attention to electrical hazards because they work on electrical circuits. Coming in contact with an electrical voltage can cause current to flow through the body, resulting in electrical shock and burns. Serious injury or even death may occur. As a source of energy, electricity is used without much thought about the hazards it can cause. Because electricity is a familiar part of our lives, it often is not treated with enough caution. As a result, an average of one worker is electrocuted on the job every day of every year!
This 6 PDH online course is applicable to electrical and mechanical engineers, electricians, plant operators, construction personnel and others seeking an understanding of the basics of electrical system safety.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the dangers of electricity
- Understanding the dangers of electric shocks
- Familiarizing with the burns caused by electricity

This online engineering PDH course presents OSHA guidance on the control of hazardous energy for protecting workers from the release of hazardous energy.
Employees can be seriously or fatally injured if machinery they service or maintain unexpectedly energizes, starts up, or releases stored energy. If the potential exists for the release of hazardous stored energy or for the re-accumulation of stored energy to a hazardous level, the employer must ensure that the employees take steps to prevent injury that may result from such release.
OSHA recognizes the risk of employees being exposed to the release of hazardous stored energy. Therefore, OSHA developed the Control of Hazardous Energy Standard to protect employees from the unexpected energization or startup of machinery or equipment, or the release of hazardous energy during service or maintenance activities.
This 2 PDH online course is applicable to employers, building owners, engineers, managers, electricians, construction workers and any other personnel who are involved in servicing and maintaining electrical machinery or equipment.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Elements of The Energy-Control Procedure
- Responsibilities of Workers When Servicing or Maintaining Energized Machinery
- Applicability of Lock-Out Procedures
- Applicability of Tag-Out Procedures
- Lock-Out Versus Tag-Out Applications
- Employee Training
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review OSHA 3120, "Control of Hazardous Energy (Lockout/Tagout)".

This online engineering PDH course discusses explosive threat parameters and measures needed to protect shelters from blast effects. Structural systems and building envelope elements for new and existing shelters are analyzed; shelters and FEMA model building types are discussed; protective design measures for the defined building types are provided, and design guidance and retrofit issues are presented. The purpose of this course is to offer comprehensive information on how to improve the resistance of shelters when exposed to blast events.
This 5 PDH online course is applicable to engineers, planners, architects, landscape designers, construction and operations personnel, security and law enforcement agents, as well as consultants and contractors who are in gaining a better understanding of the structural design criteria of safe rooms and shelters.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding explosive threat and blast effect parameters
- Learning the various methods of hardened construction
- Design of new construction vs. retrofitting existing buildings
- Familiarizing with the different FEMA shelters and model building types
- Determining adequate design and construction of buildings exposed to various forces
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Chapter 2 "Structural Design Criteria" of the FEMA Publication tilted, "Safe Rooms and Shelters" (FEMA 453).
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 guidance on OSHA construction safety and health standards that apply to all stairways and ladders used in construction, alteration, repair, painting, decorating and demolition of worksites.
Stairways and ladders are major sources of injuries and fatalities among construction workers, and many of the injuries are serious enough to require time off the job. OSHA recognizes that carelessness/misuse in using stairways and ladders presents serious danger to all workers involved. Therefore, OSHA developed the "Stairways and Ladders" guidance document to minimize hazards and protect employees from construction related accidents.
This 1 PDH online course is applicable to all engineers, employers, building owners, facility managers, and all personnel working on construction projects.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the general requirements for stairways and ladders
- Learning about the specific rules and safety precautions for all types of ladders
- Learning about the specific rules and safety precautions that govern stairways
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review OSHA 3124-12R, "Stairways and Ladders".
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.) For your convenience, we will also email it to you. Please note that you can log in to your account at any time to access and print your Certificate of Completion.
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
