Clearly, there must be a long history of problems which the board feels additional education will solve. However, in my brief review of the enacted legislation I have failed to find the problems identified. While I do not oppose education, if we knew the type of education required to eliminate the problem, perhaps the education (or training) would be more effective?
Is it truley a lack of technical knowledge most practicing engineers are missing? I suspect that is not the case as we would go out of business quickly if we were not technically competent. So what issue are we trying to solve?
