National Institute For Certification In Engineering Technologies (NICET)
NICET is a global leader in providing recognition of qualified technology professionals who can reliably apply requisite principles and practices for the benefit and safety of the public.
Its mission is to provide an independent evaluation of technical knowledge and experience among those working in the fields of engineering technology; define and support career paths for engineering technicians and related disciplines; and ensure recognition and continued professional development of certified individuals. Since its founding in 1961, over 165,000 technicians and technologists have met NICET’s rigorous certification criteria, and that number continues to grow as more employers, and state, local and the federal governments rely on NICET certification to measure the qualifications of their workforce.
NICET is a division of The National Society of Professional Engineers.
Board of Governors
NICET's Board of Governors (BoG) meets twice each year to set strategic goals and establish operating policies for NICET. Board members serve in a volunteer capacity. Seven are knowledgeable in the fields of engineering and engineering technology, while the eighth represents the general public.
