Celebrating PE Day 2020
This past week, we celebrated a few of our Professional Engineers in honor of Professional Engineers Day on August 5. Licensed Professional Engineers are certified to make safe and accurate decisions on engineering projects for the betterment of society.
18 Professional Engineers work at Kaw Valley Engineering, and we got to interview a few of them about being a Professional Engineer and their favorite aspects of civil engineering.
Justin Owens, Office Director at our Salina office, explains his early beginnings in the civil engineering world and how he uses his Professional Engineering license every day.
The first engineering licensure law was created in 1907. It is similar to a medical or legal license because only a licensed Professional Engineer can sign, seal and submit plans to a public authority for approval. Professional Engineers are responsible for making decisions that impact society, which is why licensure is important to make accurate and ethical engineering decisions.
We are happy to celebrate our intelligent Professional Engineers this week, who with their licenses exhibit competence, accuracy and quality in their work.
