Enrolled in CE FE prep course because ive been out of school for a couple years. I had Prof. Art Chianello and Robin Closs both extremely knowledgeable (one had family emergency and couldn't complete course they filled spot immediately with other prof). Not only do they teach you to the material but teach you short cuts to get the answer that saves a bunch of time. I haven't taken the test yet but it was a good review nonetheless.

I enrolled in the Live Online Course and the first thing I will say is that it is quite the financial commitment and definitely more expensive than some other courses I looked into, BUT I believe you get what you pay for. The schedule is super rigorous and no joke on top of normal life and working a full-time job, but I think the course really prepares you for the actual exam. The practice problems are more difficult than the actual exam in my opinion and the setup of the split screen with the handbook is so helpful to prepare for exam day to make sure you know your way around the manual well.

I had Josh Ogle for the breadth portion of the class and I can't say enough good things, he explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, was super engaging and has a great sense of humor. For the depth portion, I had Rafsan Rafi who was equally as great! He encouraged participation in the practice problems during class and had a live poll to make sure people were understanding things as we went.

I always struggled on exams in college but felt very prepared during the actual exam. I did complete all the readings, homework, assignments etc. which was a huge effort, but I believe made sure I was really prepared. I had a few curveball questions on the actual exam, but I'm sure that is to be expected no matter which depth portion you take. I found out today that I did indeed pass which is a huge relief and am glad I spent the extra time and money to study with PPI2Pass.

If you can make the financial commitment and time commitment for ~3 months, I recommend going with PPI2Pass hands down.

I'm doing an application to get a scholarship for the program. The responses were vague and referred me to their customer service number which after waiting hours, no one answered.

I appreciate that the instructors were very informative and also went over practice problems regularly during class. Instructors were very knowledgeable.

I like the format of the sample problems and practice questions tod do while going through the book, but I think the execution could be better. The practice question within each book chapter have several questions that don’t cover the information from that actual chapter. There is a well sample problem in chapter 7 before wells have been addressed by the book. The first water homework had a lime softening problem which was not covered in the water chapters. Some of the items I need more review for, like pumps and Henry’s law, don’t have any example problems in the book. There are several formulas in the reference manual that weren’t addressed in the water section, like the multi path pipeline equation, the NPSHA equation, and Venturi meters. The book has lots of equations that aren’t included in the reference manual at all. Variables aren’t always defined when they are given in an equation. Sometimes values are taken from tables, but those tables aren’t referenced or are included in an appendix that can’t be easily reached within the e-book.

I ordered my book Friday and paid for 2-day air shipping to ensure it arrived before a trip. I received an order confirmation email, and no other communication. On Tuesday I called to verify it was on its way and would arrive shortly. I was instead told there was a “hold” on my account, and it had not shipped. When I asked, I was given no reason for the hold. When I then asked for accelerated shipping since the delay was not on my part, I was told the only way was for me to pay more for faster shipping. So, I should receive my book later than the original 2 day air shipping, but had to pay more for even more expedited shipping. I feel that I should have been refunded my shipping cost so I pay instead for the speed of shipping I received.

Prof. Sadoff was incredibly knowledgeable, he was great at explaining topics and any questions that we had. He moved a little quick but having the recorded sessions was very helpful. The practice problems seemed harder than the actual test was. It was discouraging leading up to the test, but once I got into the test it felt like a breeze.

I tried 5 times to pay the book material through the PPI portal and all of them failed, because of a error on how the system was reading the billing address. After the 5th attempt, I gave up and asked a friend to buy the books through another channel (Amazon).

Hi, I placed an order on 8/2/2023 and payed the extra for the 2nd day air shipping ($30.74). My packet got sent somewhere else and instead I got it 7 days later from when I was supposed to get it and all I got refunded was $5.02.
Was very disappointed with this service. And other times even when I buy the hard copy of the book, I've got the option of downloading it electronically as well but not this time.
Thank you, Patricia Correa (order number # 29218845

James Mirabile was a great instructor for the Electrical Engineering Power - PE course. Very knowledgeable on the topics, and overall had great tips for the exam. Passed the exam on the first try with mostly just prep from the course. Would definitely recommend.

Highly recommend signing up for the course and studying for 3-4 weeks before classes start as it difficult if not impossible to keep up with classes while carrying out your day-to-day life. I highly recommend taking the course with Professor Art.

Even though there are too many things to read before taking the exam, the breadth part of this course with Mr. Art has reminded me of many topics and got good materials and examples, but I believe that some of the reading materials (on the PPI website) were deep enough to be in the depth part of other Civil PE disciplines.
For the depth part of this course, Mr. Mohammad Abbasi was a very good instructor, and understood and explained the materials very well.

Enrolled in the S.E. Exam prep course. Mohammad Abbasi was the instructor and he was very good. Very patient with the lectures and our questions. He thoroughly understands the material and explained it well. Granted, outside study time is definitely also required and expected, but the materials provided help me feel more comfortable and prepared to take the exam.

I was hoping for more video examples showing step by step solutions. I am a visual person so I really need that. But I do appreciate that there is a lot of online practice problems that is similar to the actual exam.

The on demand materials are organized poorly… instructor of breadth was not good, basic reading every word from slides and solutions. Will not continue subscription.

Supportive Customer Service Team.
Definitely will use again

The website is clunky to use while mobile, the chat feature does not offer appropriate choices of topics to discuss & there is no information provided on shipping status through the shipping status page.

It was very hard to solve the issue. They said lie to me that the instructor is Mahmoud and I registered my class for this instructor. Once I sent my screenshot as proof then they accepted. Now, instead of my depth part of my class they transferred my both classes (breath and depth) to another date. So, I have no access to my breath part of the class as it was scheduled at the beginning to track my learning. Their live chat says that they are available until 7:00pm. But, as soon as they collect my information at 5:00 pm the system says no one is available at this time and the chat ends. PPI need more updates on their system, communications and instructors. It’s really hard to understand the heavy accent of the instructor.

While the website is (usually) easy to use, the content often has typos and doesn't feel like it was proofread, especially in quizzes. Used this to study for an exam and it is largely supplemental and not any more beneficial. In fact, taking the license exam's practice exam are more helpful both in style and the feedback/explanations for why answers are correct. Use the money you would for these courses for the reference materials instead.

Update: As most of these reviews have after posting, someone from PPI gives a generic response, then they email you and ask for more info, and you provide it and then they just don't give any response from there. Looks like a common theme in the other reviews; buyer beware.
