NCEES Records Book

[civil12]

So about a year ago I set up an NCEES records book (to get my PE in other states, mainly MA because they regire it), but it is about to expire and I am just wondering if I should cough up the $25 to keeo it current or not even go through with it. I have all of the PE's in states that I do work in. Just wondering what other people have done.

Thanks

My advice is to keep it current...

From this thread:

OK... here's the answer to my own question.
For annual renewals, you need to

1) Update the employment reference (you extend the date of employment if you haven't changed jobs or your employer submits an entirely new employment reference if you have changed jobs), and

2) Submit a reference update, which is really just another reference, which can be *ANYONE* (except the prohibited family member) in the world so long as they are licensed. Of course, you could always use one of the five you already submitted with the original record application.

This isn't as big a deal as I feared because 1) is easy and 2) can be done by anyone (hey, even someone here on EB if you trusted them enough to recommend "yes" and not rate you as "poor").

I'm also told that once all the application information is received, it takes about two or three weeks to complete the review. If all is well, you'll get an e-mail.

So... bottom line: I still think this is a good idea for anyone that thinks they might change states.

I setup the NCEES Record as well .. and for $25/yr I think it is worth keeping it updated. I just started a new job in a new state - I plan to be there for the long term but as IlPadrino says, you NEVER know what curveballs life will throw at you in the future.
