A complete review course in two sections - choose one or both. 6 multimedia presentations for Essential  topics (those that don't use complex math) and 5 presentations for Advanced topics session topics
STREAMED TO YOU ANYTIME ... DIRECTLY TO YOUR COMPUTER

 

 

Improving productivity is an important goal in all industries. So it should be in your PE prep. How many hours do you plan to use to prepare? How many can you spare? Here is a course that will cut 100 hours from your study time. At a minimum, you can complete this course in 20 hours but they will be equivalent to 120 hours of study on your own. When complete, you will be ready for your final preparation by attacking sample PE exams.

This course is coordinated with the most popular reference handbook for the PE Electrical Engineering Reference Handbook by John Camara . Although you can take some of your favorite college textbooks into the exam, this reference book provides much of the information at one convenient point. With this CD, the book becomes both a learning tool and a reference tool. Each presentation on the CD will take a selective path through the appropriate sections of the book, in an order that is best for learning. When completed, the candidate will have great understanding where to turn, not only to find the required formulas but also the necessary properties and graphs to complete the problem.

The professor offers great advice on how to understand the topic, how to take shortcuts, what are the proper units, and where to find key information. Although the presentations explain theory, clearly and simply, the professor focuses on solving problems with you. These presentations include multimedia animations but the focus is on the most important aspect of your study schedule; problems solving.

This course is well researched to give you the most appropriate subjects for the exam.  The level of presentation is intended to be only as intense as the exam is.  It covers difficult topics, such as per unit analysis,  fault current analysis,  three phase transformers and three phase distribution systems, and many more, but not in a manner that is intended to loose anyone.

Each sessions ends with up to 20 multiple choice questions to answer, very similar to the way questions are presented on the exam. Full solutions are included for these questions.
 

There is no better way to prepare for this very difficult exam.

Electrical Power PE              2016

I recently took the Power PE exam and walked in confident with the knowledge gained by both the Essentials and Advanced courses. I appreciate PPI offering these courses and the level of knowledge from the instructor. I'm very optimistic of my success on the exam based on the knowledge presented in the courses.

Thank You
