This partnership focuses on technical excellence and collaboration in education, policy, and workforce development, aiming to certify 5,000 new engineers over the next 20 years to meet critical infrastructure needs.

USACE will also cover certification fees for its engineers, highlighting the importance of board certification. The organizations will explore further collaboration on new products, services, and educational opportunities.

“USACE is proud to formalize this partnership with CEC,” said Pete G. Perez, P.E., SES, USACE Chief of Engineering and Construction. “Together, we will empower our engineering workforce and strengthen our commitment to excellence.”

Through CEC and PIANC’s collaborative agreement signed in July 2024, we have established support and mutual recognition to promote cooperation and a shared commitment to advancing the profession. Click here to learn about upcoming PIANC events.
