Excellent video!!! Very informative!!!
I'm looking forward to validate my electrical engineering diploma. In Florida, after having the equivalence arrested by NCEES, what's the next step? Do the Fundamentals of Engineering exam and registering on the Board of Engineers?

Thanks for sharing this information buddy!

I am a Civil engineer who has just arrived to Florida 1 month ago and I am working with a status of under-degree since I am working on the area of project management in construction.

I would love to develop my career as a structural engineer as I was doing in Mexico before my arrival.

This video was helpful!

Why its written unofficial on it, what does it mean please?

[joaoplb]

Você sabe me informar se tudo tem que ser original quando enviado pra NCEES?

A NCEES tem um tradutor oficial?

Tenho que traduzir as ementas todas ou eu brevemente posso fazer uma descrição de cada disciplina?

Um vídeo explicando isso seria de grande ajuda. Obrigado!

Thank you so much, im civil engineer from Peru, my university is been acredditaded by Abet, do i need to send the course descripcions ? Or do i need to pass the credential evacuation?

[JoséAntonioGuzmanSantana]

Which ones are the certified translation agencies for making the transcripts? Any advice on this matter? Anyone with a similar question?

[hurryupwearedreaming]

Hi sir should all my documents apostatized by the US in my country of residency where i take an FE?

[leonelvasquez]

I’m in the process to send my document, but I’m got confused because I don’t know if my university need to send my document or I need to send my document personally

[Skadoosh-oz]

Does this work also for computer science?

[alissongaramos]

Olá! Muito obrigado pelas dicas e informações! Acabei de passar pelo evaluation e estou missing 6 hours em General Education. Baseado nisso, qual seria o próximo passo que eu deveria dar? Obrigado desde ja.

Primeiramente, parabéns pelo vídeo.

Entretanto tenho uma dúvida. No que tange a profissão de Engenheiro nos EUA, todo e qualquer profissional deve se tornar membro de um board, ou esse vínculo é aplicável apenas para alguns casos (ex. prestadores de serviço)? Fazendo um paralelo com o Brasil, sendo você funcionário de uma empresa ou um prestador de serviços, é necessário que haja o vínculo com o CREA. No caso dos Estados Unidos, isso não ficou claro.

Assistindo à alguns vídeos, notei que à adesão ao board é muito mais comum a Engenheiros Civis, creio que para poderem assinar projetos como prestador de serviço. É isso mesmo ou minha interpretação está errada? Posso deixar de ser membro de um board e ainda assim exercer a função de engenheiro mecânico como funcionário de uma empresa nos EUA?

Obrigado!

Do I need authentication the college certificate or just send it stamped from the faculty directly

[ReginaDavletshina]

Hi! If I already have an evaluation from WES, can I just send the report to NCEES or I have to evaluate my diploma again? Thanks

[karinaingrid]

Olá! Muito obrigada pelas informações! Depois de ter recebido a responda da NCEES, qual foi o próximo passo? Se preparar para o FE? Com isso o seu amigo estava hábil a trabalhar? Ele teve dificuldade em encontrar emprego tendo o degree de uma foreign country?

[renztabiliran]

Hello bro, my credentials already evaluated and already have an unofficial report. I have this option now of sending this unofficial report to a specific board. I will be migrating to Chicago, Illinois sooner and they have this three boards in Illinois. Illinois PE, Illinois LS and Illinois SE. What should I choose? Thanks.

[blueberet]

If I have a Master degree in addition to Bachelors, will I get both of them evaluated?
