dbpprop:abstract
  • The National Institute for Certification in Engineering Technologies (NICET) is an organization that was established in 1961 to create a recognized certification for engineering technicians and technologist within the United States. In 1981 an NCHRP Research Study requested by the AASHTO SCOC prompted the National Society for Professional Engineers to merge two certification bodies; the Institute for the Certification of Engineering Technicians (ICET) and the Engineering Technologist Certification Institute; in order to create a nonprofit that provides a nationally recognized and accepted procedure for recognition of qualified engineering technicians and technologists. NICET is a not for profit division of the National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE). The NICET registration process is separated into two class distinctions with subcategories and several specialized areas of focus. The titles of the "Certified Engineering Technician" and "Certified Engineering Technologist" are the primary designations. The subcategories are further specialized by focus. The titles chosen for these subcategories are known as Civil Engineering or Electrical/Mechanical Systems. Within the subcategories the disciplines are refined to address a selected area of expertise and are limited by categories that do not cover all areas of Technology.
