Ethical Issue: Deciding if Something is a Gift or a Bribe (LE1-007)
This online engineering PDH course discusses the fluid power of pumped or compressed fluids which generate force and motion in different types of mechanisms.
Fluid power is a term that describes the generation, control, and application of smooth, effective power of pumped or compressed fluids (either liquids or gases) to provide force and motion to mechanisms. This force and motion may be in the form of pushing, pulling, rotating, regulating, or driving. Fluid power includes hydraulics and pneumatics, which involve liquids and gases, respectively.
The extensive use of hydraulics and pneumatics to transmit power is due to the fact that properly constructed fluid power systems possess a number of favorable characteristics as they eliminate the need for complicated systems and provide a smooth, flexible, uniform action without vibration, and without being affected by variations of load. Moreover, fluid power systems offer a favorable and an economical operation, covering wide ranges of motion and requiring minimal need for hand control.
This 4 PDH online course is applicable to mechanical and civil engineers who are interested in learning more about fluid power systems, the operation of its components and the general principles which are common to all physical mechanisms.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with the fundamentals of fluid power
- Learning about the states of matter and the factors affecting them
- Understanding the characteristics and behavior of fluids at rest and in motion
- Understanding the operating characteristics and component functions of basic fluid power systems
- Exploring various types of hydraulic liquids, their particular uses and characteristics
- Gaining a general overview of the operating principles of certain pumps

This online engineering PDH course describes the construction of plate heat exchangers as well as tube and shell heat exchangers. It also describes the flow patterns and temperature profiles in parallel flow, counter flow, and cross flow heat exchangers.
The transfer of thermal energy between fluids is one of the most important and frequently used processes in engineering. The transfer of heat is usually accomplished by means of a device known as a heat exchanger. Common applications of heat exchangers include boilers, fan coolers, cooling water heat exchangers, and condensers.
This 2 PDH online course is applicable to mechanical and chemical engineers, nuclear facility operators, maintenance personnel, and technical staff to fully understand the impact that their actions may have on the safe and reliable operation of facility components and systems.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the purpose of heat exchangers
- Learning the different types of heat exchangers
- Understanding heat exchanger applications

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.
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
