Utah PE license requirements
Utah’s Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing (DOPL) doesn’t require pre-approval to test: after verifying your FE pass with NCEES, you register for the PE directly. Don’t apply for licensure until you’ve passed all required exams and met every other requirement, including experience under rule R156-22-302e. Each period of experience needs a verification form signed and sealed by a PE.
