1 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.

No extra exam for licensed engineers

You can get a Maine professional engineer license without another exam in two ways. If you have an active NCEES (national council) record and meet Maine’s rules when you apply, you qualify without extra testing. If Maine has a mutual recognition agreement with your licensing jurisdiction, the board licenses you without an exam when it finds your qualifications are substantially equivalent under that agreement. You must still meet Maine’s licensure requirements at the time you apply.
