概述

每个获得认证的专业人士都必须在每个续订期获得继续教育学分 (CEU) 或专业发展时间 (PDH)。  总共需要 10 个续订积分.  AEE does not maintain a record of your continuing education in the interim. You must maintain record of continuing education and complete a recertification form at the time of your renewal.  You will reach your recertification date on the fourth January 1st or July 1st following the date of certification.  Professional credits for recertification should be accumulated during the three-year renewal period for each renewal cycle.  为获得您的认证而参加的研讨会不适用于您的续订学分。 *所有认证续订均需经过 30 天的续订处理。

可作为认证更新积分的活动

继续从事能源管理/能源工程

  • 每年更新周期的持续工作经验每年 1 学分(最多 3 学分)
    • 示例 1:在更新周期的所有三年中都在霍尼韦尔从事能源管理工作 = 3 学分
    • 示例 2:在霍尼韦尔能源管理部门工作了两年。去年失业 = 2 个学分。

成为专业工程/可持续发展组织的成员

  • 每年更新周期的专业会员组织会员资格每年 1 个学分(最多 3 个学分)
    *拥有 AEE 认证与 AEE 会员资格不同。会员资格与认证是分开的。 **会员积分不适用于 CEA 认证更新。 **PE 许可证不符合此类别的条件。

    • 示例 1:AEE 会员 3 年和 ASHRAE 会员 3 年 = 3 个学分。
    • Example 2: Had my CMVP for 3 years = 0 credits (This is not the same as membership)
    • 只有国家组织的个人会员才有资格。

Continuing education: energy-related seminars and college courses 

  • 2 AEE credits per: 1 Continuing Education Unit (CEU) earned (e.g., 1.6 CEU = 3.2 credits)
  • 每获得 2 个 AEE 学分:获得 1 个大学学分
  • 每人 1 个 AEE 学分:5 个专业发展小时 (PDH)
  • 每 1 个 AEE 学分:5 个联系时间
    *更新文件所需的信息包括赞助组织、课程名称和简要说明、地点、日期以及获得的 CEU 或 PDH 数量
    1 小时能量训练 = 1 接触小时 = 1 PDH = 0.1 CEU = 1 CE 小时 = 1 GBCI = 1 AIA 学分 = 1 LU = 0.2 AEE 学分

    • Example 1: I took a 5-day CEM course in Florida. This course is worth 3.3 CEUs = 6.6 AEE credits.
    • 示例 2:我在一所重点大学上了一门能源管理课程,该课程价值 3 个大学学分 = 6 个 AEE 学分。
    • Example 3: I took an energy auditing course and received 20 approved PDHs = 4 AEE credits.
    • 示例 4:我参加了一项价值 16 小时的能量培训 = 3.2 AEE 学分。

Instructors may only count the same class one time per renewal cycle.

测量和验证 (M&V) 计划(仅限 CMVP 更新)

  • 每年更新周期 1 个学分(最多 3 个学分)
    • 候选人每提交一份 M&V 计划可获得 0.5 个学分(每年最多 1 个学分)
    • 同一个 M&V 计划只能计算 1 次。 M&V 计划可能不计入多个更新周期
    • 候选人必须是 M&V 计划的主要作者
    • 您必须在提交续订时提供计划摘要,包括以下内容:当局批准计划、最终用途客户名称、措施摘要、M&V 文件和方法、当局证明/第一期 M&V 节省报告的接受

能源会议出席

  • 如果一个节目颁发出席证书,学分将基于节目分配的内容。如果没有颁发证书,学分将基于记录的小时数。
    *参加贸易展览或博览会不会获得学分。

    • 示例 1:参加了 AEE 展会。将邮寄出席证明。 AEE 东部能源会议 = 0.8 CEUs = 1.6 AEE 学分 / AEE 能源会议西部 = 0.8 CEUs = 1.6 AEE 学分 / AEE 世界能源会议 = 1.0 CEUs = 2 AEE 学分
    • 示例 2:我参加了一个为期 2 天的能源会议。每天 4 小时,总共 8 小时 = 1.6 AEE 学分

颁发和发表的专业奖项或论文(必须与能源/能源效率相关,不能在工作场所授予学分)

  • 在同一续订周期内,同一演示文稿或出版物仅授予一次积分。对于出版物,应包括证书持有者必须是作者或共同作者
  • 只接受专业的编辑内容(不接受博客或 YouTube 视频)
  • 奖项必须授予个人或个人所属的团队。公司奖励不计算在内。
  • 1 credit per: one energy-related presentation
  • 2 credits per: one energy-related paper
  • 每人 2 学分:一项与能源相关的个人奖
    • Example 1: Presented the same presentation two times = 1 AEE credit

    • Example 3: Gave two presentations on two different energy topics = 2 AEE credits
    • 示例 4:撰写并提交公司报告 = 0 学分。
    • Example 5: My company won Best Energy Efficiency 2012 Award = 0 credits.
    • Example 6: My company's Energy Management Team won the Best Energy Efficiency 2018 Award (If the certificate holder is part of this team) = 2 AEE credits

在专业工程/可持续发展组织中的办公室

  • 1 AEE credit per year (3 max) holding an elected Board member position of any professional engineering society/organization such as: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, or Committee Chair
      • Example 1: VP of AEE in 2022 and President of AEE in 2023 = 2 AEE Credits
      • AEE's Scholarship Committee Chair in 2022 = 1 AEE Credit

Credits - Additional Information

  • Credits must be earned during the 3-year renewal cycle. If this is your first renewal, you can only submit credits earned after you received the certification and the preparatory course used prior to the exam is not eligible for credit.

  • 如果您的培训证书没有特别说明 CEU 或 PDH,它将被视为“接触时间”。任何联系时间都必须是与您的认证直接相关的教育培训,并且您必须能够验证您的出勤率。销售会议和非教育会议不符合条件。请使用上面的图表(在“等效项”下)计算您的培训学分。
    • CEH、CEU、LEU、LS、LU、SD、CE、CPE、PDH = 训练小时数的测量值。每小时培训 = 0.2 AEE 学分。
    • 例如:10 小时的培训(0.2 学分 x 10 小时)= 1 CEU = 2 AEE 学分

  • 应向每位参加者提供一份参与证书,说明参加的学习活动、日期、地点和授予的 CEU 或 PDH

The AEE Certification board will not pre-approve courses or course providers.  It is requested that course providers present certified professionals with the above information needed for documentation as proof of continuing education.  The decision of what course or activity is to be submitted AEE for credit is up to the judgment of the certified professional.  Continuing education which enhances the professional attribute of the certified professional and is beneficial in an area of practice will be considered by the Board for those who are audited.  If chosen for audit in a random selection, the certified professional will be expected to provide proof of documentation for the CEUs claimed.  Relevant courses presented by an accredited university or college, or nonprofit organization are generally accepted for credit.

In-Training Certification

Renewal credits are not required to maintain in-training certification. To upgrade your certification, you must meet the certification education/experience requirements and submit the certification application by the in-training certification expiration date.

In-training certifications are non-renewable. If a candidate does not meet the requirements to upgrade the in-training designation, the candidate will need to resubmit to the certification process and successfully meet the criteria for certification by personal data information and examination.

Retired Certification Status

经认证的专业人员在退休并年满六十五岁时,将被指定为退休人员,不再需要支付续订费,也将不再列在我们的积极执业认证专业人员目录中。无需进一步报告,除非通过发送已退休的认证专业人员的驾驶执照副本通知认证更新主管符合年龄要求。

如果退休的认证专业人士希望将认证状态从退休逆转为有效,则退休的专业人士需要按照认证恢复要求遵循两个选项之一来恢复认证。

Certification Reinstatement Requirements

失效的认证专业人士有两种恢复的选择:

  • Acquire make-up points at a cumulative total equal to 3.5 per year for every year since date of expiration. This option is available one time only. (Does not apply to ENAC recognized lapsed certifications) or,
  • Resubmit to the certification process and successfully meet the criteria for certification by personal data information and examination.

Legacy certifications can only be reinstated by credits. Retaking the exam is not available.

Reinstatement credits are determined by the year that your certification expired. Please contact the Certification Director to find out your exact renewal credit requirements.  对于所有计划,如果您的认证已过期超过 3 个更新周期(9 年),您将需要参加并通过考试才能恢复。

Voluntary Suspension

Individuals who are out on leave from employment for reasons such as active military duty, disability, or parental leave may voluntarily suspend their certification and reactivate within three (3) years from the current date of expiration. Certified professionals must contact AEE in writing prior to the certification expiration date to request the suspension and include supporting documentation confirming the reason for the leave request.

 

A certified professional should notify AEE immediately should he or she become fully or partially disabled and unable to carry out the full responsibilities of the certification earned. Subsequently, he or she should advertise and contract to undertake only those capabilities and requirements of the certification earned which he or she is able to completely fulfill. AEE reserves the right to proceed on a case-by-case basis to place any AEE certification as inactive.
