COURSE TITLE: Airport Snow and Ice Control Equipment
COURSE NO: D03-006
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Airport Snow and Ice Control Equipment
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course provides guidance about the selection process for snow removal and ice control equipment.

 

The selection process involves three components: identifying the type of equipment for a specific task, determining the number of such equipment, and using the recommended equipment specification to better ensure that the equipment performs the required task.

 

Airport operators should maintain runways and taxiways if possible, to a “no worse than wet” condition during winter storms. To meet this challenge, the purchase of snow and ice control equipment will not only require significant financial commitments, but also require careful planning and a fundamental understanding of snow and removal equipment.

 

This 3 PDH online course is intended for industrial, mechanical and electrical engineers, as well as other technical personnel interested in learning more about the equipment used to control snow and ice at airports.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Understanding how snow and ice control equipment are classified to the specific task(s) that the equipment is designed to perform
  • Familiarizing with the selection process for various snow removal and ice control equipment
  • Learning about the different types of snow removal and ice control equipment
  • Familiarizing with the operational standards and compliance testing process
Course Document
In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review the document “Airport Snow and Ice Control Equipment”, based on the advisory circular published by the U.S. Department of Transportation – FAA, publication number 150/5220-20A, dated September 24, 2014.

COURSE TITLE: Reactor Kinetics and Operation
COURSE NO: N03-002
COURSE PROVIDER: Gilbert Gedeon, P.E.
Reactor Kinetics and Operation
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course introduces specific topics including sub-critical multiplication, reactor kinetics, and reactor operation.

 

Subcritical multiplication is the phenomenon that accounts for the changes in neutron flux that takes place in a subcritical reactor due to reactivity changes. It is important to understand subcritical multiplication in order to understand reactor response (reactor kinetics) to changes in conditions. Reactor Kinetics is the response of neutron flux and reactor power to changes in reactivity. As such, it is also important to understand the principles that determine how a reactor responds during all modes of operation.

 

This 3 PDH online course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the reactor operations.

Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Learning about sub-critical multiplication
  • Understanding reactor kinetics
  • Understanding reactor modes of operation
Course Document

In this professional engineering CEU course, you need to review Module 4, "Reactor Theory (Reactor Operations)" of the Department of Energy Publication DOE-HDBK-1019/2-93, "Nuclear Physics and Reactor Theory".

COURSE TITLE: Ethical Issue: Deciding if Something is a Gift or a Bribe
COURSE NO: LE1-007
Ethical Issue: Deciding if Something is a Gift or a Bribe
Course Highlights

This online engineering PDH course will establish, through the presentation of many examples, the principles of distinguishing between a gift and a bribe.

 

The federal government has formulated detailed rules covering gifts given to executive-branch employees in many situations. The rules are published in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and are illustrated through many examples. Even though the examples are intended for government employees (many of whom are engineers), they also apply to private-sector engineers in similar situations. This course presents selected CFR examples that furnish guidance on the ethics of gift giving in situations that are especially relevant to engineers.

 

This 1 PDH online course is intended for engineers seeking guidance on distinguishing between ethical gift-giving and bribery.
Learning Objectives

This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Familiarizing with definitions of a bribe and a gift
  • Knowing the bribe status of a gift based on a personal relationship
  • Understanding the conditions under which gifts to spouses are acceptable
  • Knowing the need to avoid even the appearance of a gift being a bribe
  • Recognizing when gifts involving free attendance at meetings and conferences are acceptable
  • Understanding the importance of the cumulative effect of receiving even small gifts on a periodic basis
  • Learning the importance of gifts received when on assignment rather than outside of work
