Why are Outreach Initiatives Important?<\/span><\/span><\/h2>

Outreach initiatives are critical to the overall mission of NCEES, which is to advance licensure for engineers and surveyors in order to safeguard the health, safety, and welfare of the public. Supporting K\u201312 initiatives and connecting professional practice with education are two of the biggest components of NCEES outreach efforts.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>

Supporting K\u201312 Initiatives<\/h4>

NCEES celebrates the professions and sponsors hands-on activities to promote careers in engineering and surveying to children, their parents, and teachers. Along with exploring career options, NCEES focuses on how professional engineers and surveyors protect the public. The organization\u2019s support of DiscoverE is a central part of NCEES efforts to engage with K\u201312 students.<\/p>\n

NCEES also supports MATHCOUNTS Foundation programs. The foundation provides competitions and clubs to empower middle-school students of all ability levels and backgrounds to reach their full potential in mathematics. In addition, the organization provides support to Trig-Star, an annual high-school mathematics competition sponsored by the National Society of Professional Surveyors.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
