examinations. The first examination, known as the fundamentals | 246 |
examination, may be taken by the applicant at any time after the | 247 |
applicant has completed the required education under division (A) | 248 |
or (B) of this section, or, at the discretion of the board, an | 249 |
applicant may be permitted to take the first examination during | 250 |
the applicant's concluding term of an approved curriculum in | 251 |
engineering or surveying of four years or more. | 252 |
(I) When the applicant has passed the fundamentals | 253 |
examination, theThe board shall give an applicant shall be given | 254 |

Revised Code, they shall be held at a time and place specified by | 307 |
the state board of registration for professional engineers and | 308 |
surveyors. The examinations shall test the applicant's knowledge | 309 |
to perform professional engineering or surveying services which | 310 |
shall insure the safety of life, health, and property. An | 311 |
examination referred to as the fundamentals of engineering or as | 312 |
the fundamentals of surveying examination shall test the | 313 |
applicant's knowledge of the fundamentals of engineering or | 314 |
surveying as appropriate. | 315 |
(B) An examination referred to as the principles and practice | 316 |
of engineering examination shall test the applicant's knowledge of | 317 |
the branch of engineering in which the applicant specializes. For | 318 |
the purpose of this section, the branches of engineering are all | 319 |
those branches in which engineering examinations are offered by | 320 |
the board or the national council of examiners for engineering and | 321 |
surveying. | 322 |
(C) A principles and practice of surveying examination shall | 323 |

Renewal may be effected by the applicant's payment to the | 334 |
treasurer of state of a fee of forty dollars for a renewal of | 335 |
registration as either a professional engineer or professional | 336 |
surveyor and demonstration of completion of the continuing | 337 |
professional development requirements of section 4733.151 of the | 338 |
Revised Code. When notified as required in this section, a | 339 |
registrant's failure to renew registration shall not deprive the | 340 |
registrant of the right of renewal within the following twelve | 341 |
months, but the fee to renew a registration within twelve months | 342 |
after expiration shall be increased fifty per cent, and the | 343 |
registrant shall certify completion of continuing professional | 344 |
development hours as required in section 4733.151 of the Revised | 345 |
Code. | 346 |
The state board of registration for professional engineers | 347 |
and surveyors may, upon request, waive the payment of renewal fees | 348 |
or the completion of continuing professional development | 349 |
requirements for a registrant during the period when the | 350 |
registrant is on active duty in connection with any branch of the | 351 |
armed forces of the United States. | 352 |
(B) Each certificate of authorization issued pursuant to | 353 |
section 4733.16 of the Revised Code shall authorize the holder to | 354 |
provide professional engineering or professional surveying | 355 |
services, through the registered professional engineer or | 356 |
professional surveyor designated as being in responsible charge of | 357 |
the professional engineering or professional surveying practice, | 358 |
from the date of issuance until the lastsecond immediately | 359 |
succeeding thirtieth day of June next succeeding the date upon | 360 |
which the certificate was issued, unless the certificate has been | 361 |
revoked or suspended for cause as provided in section 4733.20 of | 362 |
the Revised Code or has been suspended pursuant to section 3123.47 | 363 |
of the Revised Code.

biennially on the thirtieth day of June. | 365 |
(C) If a registrant fails to renew registration as provided | 366 |
under division (A) of this section, renewal and reinstatement may | 367 |
be effected under rules the board adopts regarding requirements | 368 |
for reexamination or reapplication, and reinstatement penalty | 369 |
fees. The board may require a registrant who fails to renew | 370 |
registration to complete the required hours of continuing | 371 |
professional development as a condition of renewal and | 372 |
reinstatement if the registrant seeks renewal and reinstatement | 373 |
under this division. | 374 |
Sec. 4733.151. (A) For registrations expiring on the last day | 375 |
of December 2011, each registrant for renewal shall have | 376 |
completed, in calendar year 2011, at least fifteen hours of | 377 |
continuing professional development for professional engineers and | 378 |
surveyors. Thereafter, each registrant shall complete at least | 379 |
thirty hours of continuing professional development during the | 380 |
two-year period immediately preceding the biennial renewal | 381 |
expiration date. | 382 |
(B) The continuing professional development requirement may | 383 |
be satisfied by coursework or activities dealing with technical, | 384 |
ethical, or managerial topics relevant to the practice of | 385 |
engineering or surveying. A registrant may earn continuing | 386 |
professional development hours by completing or teaching | 387 |
university or college level coursework, attending seminars, | 388 |
workshops, or conferences, authoring relevant published papers, | 389 |
articles, or books, receiving patent awards, or actively | 390 |
participating in professional or technical societies serving the | 391 |
engineering or surveying professions. | 392 |
In the case of the board disputing the content of any credit | 393 |
hours or coursework, then the board shall presume as a matter of | 394 |
law that any credit hours submitted by a registrant, or any | 395 |
coursework or activity submitted for approval, complies with this | 396 |
section if submitted and if a statement signed by a current | 397 |
registrant not otherwise participating in the event affirms that | 398 |
the material is relevant to the registrant's practice and will | 399 |
assist the registrant's development in the profession. | 400 |
Credit for university or college level coursework shall be | 401 |
based on the credit established by the university or college. One | 402 |
semester hour as established by the university or college shall be | 403 |
the equivalent of forty-five hours of continuing professional | 404 |
development, and one quarter hour as established by the university | 405 |
or college shall be the equivalent of thirty hours of continuing | 406 |
professional development. | 407 |
Credit for seminars, workshops, or conferences offering | 408 |
continuing education units shall be based on the units awarded by | 409 |
the organization presenting the seminar, workshop, or conference. | 410 |
A registrant may earn ten continuing professional development | 411 |
hours for each continuing education unit awarded. Each hour of | 412 |
attendance at a seminar, workshop, or conference for which no | 413 |
continuing education units are offered shall be the equivalent of | 414 |
one continuing professional development hour. | 415 |
A registrant may earn two continuing professional development | 416 |
hours for each year of service as an officer or active committee | 417 |
member of a professional or technical society or association that | 418 |
represents registrants or entities composed of registrants. A | 419 |
registrant may earn ten continuing professional development hours | 420 |
for authoring relevant published papers, articles, or books. A | 421 |
registrant may earn ten continuing professional development hours | 422 |
for each such published paper, article, or book. A registrant may | 423 |
earn ten continuing professional development hours for each patent | 424 |
award. | 425 |
(C) A person registered as both a professional engineer and | 426 |
professional surveyor shall complete at least ten of the thirty | 427 |
