Do I need to continue reviewing my EIT license after Passing the PE?

Hi all, 

Does one need to continue renewing their EIT/EI license after obtaining their PE?

Thanks.

The short answer is No.

The slightly longer answer is I'm pretty sure your EI/EIT doesn't need to be renewed... ever. It might depend on what state it's in before you're licensed as a PE. However, once you have the stamp, you're no longer an EI, and therefore there's no need to worry about it.

Depends on which state you are in and whether that licensing board has requirements stating a renewal.  An EIT in California only expires upon being issued a PE license or if you pass away.  Though I am aware of at least two states that do have a renewal period for EIT certificates.

EDIT:  I just went back and reread your question again.  Sorry, i missed your point.  Once you obtain your PE, the EIT is generally automatically expired at that point.

Thanks guys. I also do not understand why my state board keeps sending me passive-aggressive emails asking/demanding me to renew my EI license. However, to give them the benefit of the doubt, I did get my EI in one state and have my PE from another. So maybe their system bot sends out these automatic emails.

High probability that it's a bot. Let that sucker expire... Particularly if you're not contemplating licensure in that state.

Ha! I'm going to ignore them emails. Don't think I will seek licensure there, but who knows. I will cross that bridge when I get to it
