"My instructor was Josh Ogle, a.k.a. The Hipster Engineer, and I couldn't recommend him highly enough"
''My instructor was Josh Ogle, a.k.a. The Hipster Engineer, and I couldn't recommend him highly enough. His explanations of the course material were excellent and he was completely willing to stop and clarify questions in the chat [as well as on the Discussion Board]. He speaks with confidence and clarity, and has the ability to answer most questions on the fly, which is especially impressive in cases where the question was in the form of 'Can it be done this way instead?' I know how difficult it can be to answer off-script questions. If the questions were a bit too tricky or were going to take up too much time, they would be answered in the forums or during office hours. I enjoyed watching his YouTube videos, as well, and hope he makes more content soon!''

"The class provided numerous examples that prepared me for the more difficult problems"
''My instructor was David Connolly. The course taught me several things to [help] improve my efficiency during the exam, such as tools and tricks that exist for the calculator [we were] allowed to use during the exam. [This] made several problems [go] much faster and gave me more time to focus on the lengthier problems. The class provided numerous examples that prepared me for the more difficult problems. The lecture focus was also helpful. The sections we spent a significant amount of time on were more involved in the actual exam vs. sections we did not spend a significant amount of time on [that] only had a few problems. There were more general safety questions, which I cannot be specific on due to nondisclosure at the beginning of the exam you agree to, than expected, which were not in the handbook, but I am assuming that is common to have a group of random problems that change in the exam that are difficult to prepare people on. Not difficult though, just caught me off guard.''

"Great support and practice"
"Gave the resources and materials needed to prepare properly. The access to forums and question bank problems allowed for great support and practice."
- Eduardo Z., FE Mechanical
"Ray was an outstanding instructor, absolutely second to none"
"Ray was an outstanding instructor, absolutely second to none. I cannot say enough about how impressed I was with him as an instructor. He did a great job at focusing on what was relevant to the exam and brought up topics that might be challenging. The Qbank was also beneficial as you can create as many quizzes as you want in areas that you may not be as strong in."
- Seth O., PE Mechanical
"I had the resolve and felt confident in my solution"
"The instructor did a number of things to support me. First, the continuous exposure to my weak subject areas led me to become more comfortable with them. Additionally, the areas that I knew well, I grew a stronger depth and understanding of the concepts. Finally, with continuous repetition of practice problems and countless conversations with the instructor, my confidence [grew] in my ability to answer questions. So whether they were first-time questions or new questions I encountered on the exam, I had the resolve and felt confident in my solution."
- Foster J., FE Civil
"Practice problems really helped me solidify my understanding of concepts"
"Ray Burynski’s lectures were great for providing a review of all of the material that I had learned throughout my undergraduate career. I thought the pace was excellent, and the choice of practice problems really helped me solidify my understanding of concepts that I had either struggled with in college or I had forgotten about completely since graduating. The practice problems were also incredibly helpful to build my confidence in the material before taking [and passing!] the exam."
- Elliott E., FE Mechanical
"PPI and David were a key part to being able to pass the FE exam the first time"
"Having been out of college for almost two decades, I was nervous about taking an exam most people take during or right after college. There’s definitely a lot of material to cover, but the combination of classes, reading material, and practice problems helped out tremendously. David Connolly was our instructor and he was great. During the classes, he explained the material well and took time to answer questions during the lecture. He was very active in the forums answering any questions that came up. It took a couple of months to get my mind back into ‘learning mode’, but I was able to digest the material in an easy way and what I had learned so long ago started coming back. PPI and David were a key part to being able to pass the FE exam the first time."

"Real-world HVAC applications"
"The course has real-world HVAC applications."
- Rocky M., PE Mechanical
"A focused and sustainable preparation process"
"Maintaining a well-organized study schedule allowed for a focused and sustainable preparation process. The Qbank proved valuable in pinpointing knowledge gaps and strengthening weaker areas, ultimately contributing to my exam readiness."
- Jami Lynn. R., PE Civil
"The instructor who was responsive and helpful"
"Engagement with the teacher. Mohammad Abbasi was the instructor who was responsive and helpful during the course."
- Nhi N., PE Civil
"This course has set me up well to pass my upcoming exam"
"In my opinion, PE licensure allows you to 'write your own story' when it comes to making career moves. This course has set me up well to pass my upcoming exam. The recorded lectures were fantastic. Some lectures I needed to watch at 0.75x speed, while I was able to conduct a comprehensive review of all topics by re-watching the lectures at 2.00x speed. Without this functionality, I would not have been able to conduct a thorough re-review of all materials."
- Kristian C., PE Civil
"Couldn’t be happier about how it all went!"
"Dr. Alzioud was an incredible resource in terms of things to focus on and memorize. His lectures made it very easy to digest the material. He has a great way of breaking topics down so that they don’t seem overwhelming. He provided great advice regarding the mental aspects of studying for and taking the exam, as well. The diagnostic exams, homework, and practice exams on PPI were extremely helpful, as well as the additional question bank. I used the question bank to create mini-exams and full practice exams for myself prior to taking the real thing. Couldn’t be happier about how it all went!"
- Kevin L., PE Civil
"I wouldn't have passed the PE exam without PPI"
"Paul is an awesome instructor, and I followed his regimen for success. Practice problems - pencil to paper - rest - repeat. The morning of the test I felt confident and ready thanks to him and the work put in. I wouldn't have passed the PE exam without PPI."
- Tito S., PE Mechanical
"I am glad I invested in the PPI PE Exam live course"
"The PPI course provided a well-structured study plan that covered all the topics for the PE Environmental Exam. The live course helped me be consistent with my studies and stick to a schedule. Kunal Patel was our professor, and he took the time to answer all our questions and would clarify the challenging questions and topics. There were topics that I did not understand during self-study, but the professor would walk through many examples to reinforce material. The Learning Hub quiz generators were helpful for the simulated timed problem solving. The course was fast paced at the beginning, but it helps to make sure we cover all the material and have time to review at the end. This was my second time attempting the exam after self-studying the first time. I am happy to share that I passed the PE exam. I am glad I invested in the PPI PE Exam live course."
- Guillermo R., PE Environmental
