I IL Sexual Harassment Prevention Training The purpose of this course is to provide current information about sexual harassment in the workplace and to ensure that employees comply with the educational requirements of Illinois Public Act 100–0762. This includes understanding how to prevent and deal with sexual harassment and how to report such harassment. Class Format: Online On-Demand, Online PDF Offered In: IL 1 hour
I Indiana Statutes and Rules for Professional Engineers
In this course, we will give a general overview of the fundamentals of solar energy, including its definition, usage, types, and applications. We will further cover sources, location issues, and statistical data derived from a U.S. government database. There will also be an explicit description of the current applicability of solar energy
According to 864 Indiana Administrative Code 1.1-15- 3, the required continuing education for professional engineers in the state of Indiana includes thirty (30) hours of continuing education that meets the requirements of IC 25-1-4. At least one (1) hour of this continuing education provided must be in the Indiana statutes and rules that are applicable to the practice of professional engineers. Class Format: Online On-Demand, Online PDF Offered In: IN 1 hour Introduction to Earth Retention Structures This course will cover the three types of laterally acting earth pressures (at-rest, active, and passive) as they apply to retaining wall design. Additionally, it will cover some basic soil mechanics principles, along with some common field and laboratory soil testing procedures. This course will briefly cover the methods used for calculating the factors of safety for sliding, overturning, bearing capacity, and shallow/deep shear failure modes. Lastly, this course will examine a case study of a wall failure situation which includes many of the common pitfalls of wall design, such as the effects of surcharge and hydrostatic loads on a wall, and the importance of preemptive stabilization remediation on aging structures.

Illinois Statutes and Rules for Professional Engineers
The Illinois Compiled Statutes are a collection of state laws that are organized by their relevant subject area into a series made up of chapters and sections. Chapter 225 ILCS 325, “Professional Engineering Practice Act of 1989” was passed into law by the Illinois General Assembly in order to regulate the practice of engineering in the State of Illinois. Despite its name listing the date as 1989, it is consistently updated by laws that create new statutory material, delete outdated material, and modify material to reflect new information or requirements. In this course, you will explore the Professional Engineering Practice Act of 1989. Class Format: Online On-Demand, Online PDF Offered In: IL 1 hour
Fundamentals of Valves for Professional Engineers
The objectives of this course are to provide a fundamental overview of valves as outlined by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the American Petroleum Institute (API). All engineering disciplines will be involved with valves at some juncture in their career. Professional Engineers need more than just how to select a valve based on a need, valve construction, application, and purpose. This training will widen an engineer’s perspective even if they do not directly deal with the design of valves. Class Format: Online On-Demand, Online PDF Offered In: AK, AL, AR, DE, FL, GA, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MD, ME, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY 3 hours
