I join with another comment on this topic: often code reviewers and building officials are ignorant of proper application of building codes. Any CE requirements implemented on Architects and Engineers should be extended to code officials.
I am not opposed to CE requirements, but would like to see broad alternatives for those not engaged in traditional practice. For example, please consider a provision for documenting "related experience" that may not be accredited by an individual organization such as the AIA. The state law should NOT be proprietary to the AIA monopoly.
