What this means for firm owners in Connecticut
Connecticut PE licenses renew on this schedule: annual; renews January 31. Connecticut has no PDH requirement for PE renewal, but staff who hold licenses in other states still need to meet those states' rules.
Use the Connecticut board’s site to confirm the rules that apply to your staff, including renewal dates and professional development requirements.
If you hire an engineer licensed elsewhere, confirm the Connecticut comity process with the board and whether an NCEES Record is used. Check the board site before an out-of-state PE begins work or your firm offers engineering services.
Owner checklist
- Confirm each Connecticut PE’s renewal date and requirements on the board site.
- Ask the board what PDH rules apply, then track each employee’s records.
- Before hiring an out-of-state PE, confirm Connecticut’s comity process and NCEES Record requirements.
- Check with the board whether your firm needs registration and what steps apply.
