PE Information Meeting

Engineers who are preparing to take the PE exam can attend the PE Information Meeting to learn more about the exam and get tips about how to prepare for the exam from a panel of past test-takers.

Study Group Contact List

YMF compiles and distributes a contact list of engineers who are preparing for the upcoming exam and are interested in joining a study group.

Study Group Study Sessions

There are two evening study group sessions for engineers to meet and study together. The first study session concentrates on the 8-hour national civil engineering exam and the second study session focuses on the California Seismic Principles and Surveying exams.

The New Members Orientation occurs annually at the social hour of a SEAONC Dinner Meeting. Committee chairs are present to meet new members and give information about their committees.
