NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR THE UNIFORM LICENSING POWER ENGINEERS (NIULPE)

The health and safety of many people depend upon the proper operation and functioning of engineering equipment.  An engineer must operate and maintain equipment according to state and local laws and codes.  As a lower grade power engineer, they are under the general direction of a chief engineer or engineer holding a higher grade license whose license is equal to or above the requirements needed to operate the plant.  They are to perform those duties prescribed by the higher grade engineer.  As they advance their licenses through experience and study, they become qualified to take charge of an entire engineering plant operation.  Through on-the-job training and application of study courses, a power engineer attains the skills and knowledge required.  There are five levels of certifications starting from Fifth Class Engineer and ending at Chief Engineer.  The level of each student will determine what level certificate his/her training will cover.
