| SBE 20-year level of certification |
Last month  I went over the certifications that require at least five or 10 years of boradcast engineering experience in order to qualify to take an SBE certification exam. This month, I want to let you know that if you have been in the broadcast engineering field for 20 or more years, then we have a certification for you.
If you already hold a senior certification or a Professional Electrical Engineer's license and have 20 years of service in broadcast or related technology, you may obtain Certified Professional Broadcast Engineer without taking an exam. Applicants must supply three letters of reference along with other backup material with the appropriate application. For more information on the CPBE requirements and the application, click here http://www.sbe.org/sections/CPBE.php
If you have missed any of the past SBE Career Advancement Newsletters, you can access them here. If you are interested in any of the other SBE certifications not mentioned here, please go to http://www.sbe.org/sections/cert_classif.php for more information. Keep in mind that you may apply for the following certifications when you qualify for them. You do not need to do one level before going onto the other.
Please visit the SBE website or contact the Certification Director, Megan Clappe, for more information. |
