During its annual meeting, which was held last month in Anchorage, Alaska, the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (ncees) voted in favor of a modification to section 130.10 of its model law. The purpose of the law is to provide guidance to states as they craft legislation pertaining to licensure. The change is expected to have a pronounced effect on engineering education by encouraging states to expand the body of knowledge requirements for the professional practice of engineering. The ncees is a national nonprofit group comprising engineering and surveying licensing boards representing all U.S. states and territories.
