Every Ohm Gurus Seminar Features:
-
Professional engineer guest speaker focused on teaching you specific knowledge related to their area of competence and expertise.
-
A single measurable learning objective that you will meet by attending the seminar.
-
Topics are aimed at maintaining, improving, or expanding the skill set and knowledge relevant to the field of electrical power engineering and methods of practice.
-
Each seminar is designed to be one contact hour long including a live question and answer session at the end where attendees can interact directly with the instructor in real time.
-
Attendees may also interact with the instructor before or after the live seminar by utilizing our online community message board, including attendees who viewed the seminar recording on-demand (asynchronous distance learning).
-
Every attendee will be given an instructor evaluation to assess the effectiveness of meeting the learning objective, relevance of materials, and overall satisfaction. Results will be shared with each instructor and Electrical PE Review, INC. will retain records of each evaluation for 15 years.
Earn Your Continuing Education Certificate:
Just about every state requires continuing education for professional licensing renewal. Some states use different acronyms to mean the same thing such as: Professional Development Hour (PDH), Continuing Education Unit (CEU), Continuing Professional Competency (CPC), Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
-
For live webinar seminars (synchronous learning) - 50 minutes of live verified webinar attendance is required for participants to earn a 1-hour PDH certificate.
-
For on-demand seminar recordings (asynchronous distance learning) - participants must complete an end-of-activity quiz to verify that the learning objective has been met.
-
Each end-of-activity quiz is 5 questions for every contact-hour seminar recording with a minimum passing score of 80% required to earn a 1-hour PDH certificate.
-
PDH Certificates are automatically emailed to you as soon as you meet the requirements for each seminar.
-
Electrical PE Review, INC. retains copies of your live attendance records, end-of-activity scores, and PDH Certificates for up to 15 years.

Certificate Compliance
Ohm Gurus' professional development seminars are designed in compliance with the Continuing Professional Competency (CPC) Guidelines set by the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES®). These standards were developed to assist state engineering boards in defining rules and procedures for CPC credits essential for license renewal.
Please note that a few state engineering boards mandate provider pre-approval for continuing education to be accepted, even if the educational material meets their education requirements and NCEES® guidelines.
Electrical PE Review, INC. is an approved sponsor of continuing education for professional engineers in the state of New York (NYS Sponsor #279) by the New York State Board for Engineering, Land Surveying & Geology.
Electrical PE Review, INC. is an approved provider of continuing education for professional engineers in the state of Florida (FL License #880 CEP Approved) by the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation.
Electrical PE Review, INC. is an approved provider of continuing education for professional engineers in the state of New Jersey (NJ Approval Number 24GP00051800) by the New Jersey State Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors.
For all other states, Ohm Gurus' continuing education certificates are expected to meet the requirements for continuing education for professional engineering licensing renewal.
Each of our one-hour seminars offers a clear, relevant learning objective, opportunities for learner-instructor engagement, content developed and delivered by professionally licensed engineers in their area of expertise, methods of verifying attendance, and activities to evaluate learning objective effectiveness. The content is focused on maintaining, improving, and expanding the skill set and knowledge relevant to the field of electrical power engineering and its methods of practice. However, each engineering state board has the final discretion to approve or deny any continuing educational activity at any time, and it is the responsibility of the professional engineer licensee to determine if an educational activity is acceptable to their state board.
