Through a growing and active membership, the OSPE
tradition of "getting things done" continues. Membership makes you part of an organization
devoted to all professional engineers, and you
will enjoy privileges that help keep you current
and competitive in the professional marketplace.
Membership identifies you
as a special member of the professional
engineering community
who is committed to excellence. Simply by adding, "Member
of the Ohio Society of Professional Engineers,"
to your resume speaks volumes.
Most of your dues,
as well as most of your NSPE and OSPE activities, is
tax deductible as a business expense--another
added benefit! Membership in your Society doesn't
cost, it pays!
Networking
Find out the
secrets to success
from our senior members. OSPE
will open doors for you!
Through your membership, you will open doors to
many opportunities that would have bypassed you.
Jobs!
Maximize your employment opportunities by meeting
fellow professional engineers from all fields and
management levels. Relationships established
through chapter and state activities will benefit
you for your entire career.
How We Protect Our Profession
NSPE is on
the firing line of our profession. We protect professional
engineers from major challenges.
NSPE monitors and influences legislation and
government action, provides testimony and guidance,
and facilitates constructive government action at
all three levels--local, state and federal. We
make you voice heard!
Three for the Price of One
You
get three memberships for the price of one -- local chapter,
state & national. Compare our national, state and local dues to other
professions, and you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Depending on your chapter dues and your years of service, your
professional dues is much lower!

increase public recognition as one of Ohio's
leading professional engineers. Gain exposure and
stature in your profession.
Influence the direction of your profession
Membership keeps you in
the mainstream of the profession. Only through
membership can you have such influence. NSPE addresses industry problems before they become
your own problems.
Urgent Updates
Stay current on
the engineering issues through our publications. They
supply vital information you
need to keep up-to-date on issues critical to
your practice.
NSPE's monthly magazine,
PE, is the
leading authority on national-level matters
affecting the engineering profession today. The Ohio
Society's
Ohio Engineer
magazine, keeps you updated on
state level government and industry
news. The
Capitol Report
and
legislative updates provide urgent information and news you
need. Your local chapter newsletter
is your source for local networking and programs.
Practice Divisions
Whether
you are an engineer in construction, education,
government, industry or private practice, NSPE
has a specialized, separate practice division for
your needs. These five practice divisions address
the issues of your area of practice and develop
programs tailored to your needs.
Professional Training Programs.
Staying on top of current engineering issues,
new advances in technology and developments in
the profession is crucial to your success as an
engineer. Membership gives you access to an
abundance of professional development and
training programs. NSPE offers seminars and home
study courses on business management, as well as
technical topics to give you a competitive edge
in your career.
Through its alliance with the Engineers
Foundation of Ohio, OSPE members can attend the
Engineer's Leadership Institute and
Fall Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
Conference at greatly
reduced rates. And
OSPE offers its Ohio Engineers Legislative Day and
its Spring CPD Conference featuring the same
discounts and great programming specifically designed for
professional engineers!
As a member, you will develop
skills that they don't teach in college. You'll
learn easy ways of handling difficult situations,
such as:
"How
should I communicate in a politically sensitive
environment?"
"How can
I convince management that I can manage people as
well as engineering projects?"
"How can
I move up the corporate ladder?"
"How can
I gain more recognition for my work?"
Many of our chapters conduct regular professional
engineer exam review courses to help our members prepare.
Frequent chapter meetings offer you the chance network. Guest
speakers are invited to talk on contemporary issues in your
community and present timely information for your use |
