How do I register for the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) and Principles and Practice of Engineering (PE) exams?
Applicants for the FE exam no longer apply to the Tennessee Board for authorization to sit for the FE exam. Applicants may apply directly with NCEES at www.ncees.org and then apply to the Tennessee Board for Engineer Intern certification after passing the exam.
For the PE exam, applicants must first submit an application to test and an application fee ($30.00) to the Tennessee Board office on core.tn.gov. Following approval to sit for the PE exam, applicants must register with NCEES at www.ncees.org to pay the exam fee and schedule the exam.
Once the exam is taken and passed, the applicant cannot apply for a TN PE License until they have completed 4 years of post-graduate experience. The application is online at core.tn.gov and the fee is $140.00.
How are exam results reported to architect and engineer candidates?
Exam results for the architect and landscape architect positions are available to candidates on the NCARB and CLARB websites.
Engineering exam candidates are emailed when their results are available on the NCEES website, and PE exam candidates also receive written notification of their results from the Board office.
