PSE Certification is not intended to be a competitor to or a replacement for Chartered Engineer status. The two qualifications complement one another with Chartered Engineer status demonstrating a breadth of knowledge and experience across many disciplines that are of relevance to all professional engineers, whereas PSE is focused on engineering simulation and demonstrates a depth of expertise in that technology.
The NAFEMS PSE Certification program is regularly audited by the Engineering Council. As a Professional Affiliate NAFEMS works closely with the Engineering Council when revising our processes and documentation.
