The Ultimate VIP Package

IT'S ALL ANSWERED HERE.
The National Society of Professional Engineers cites that you can attract a much higher income than your unlicensed friends. It is an absolute must! Whether you are just starting out, you’ve been burned by taking the test before, or you just need help, this is the place to be to get a complete review of the entire breadth portion of the PE exam (we’ll help with your depth section too!). Yep, start to finish!
WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT?
Personalized Support
We pride ourselves on the support that we can offer you. You will no longer be just one student in a sea of others. I know how hard it is to take this as a repeat taker and I know that when you need help you need it! Well, worry no longer – If you need help we will be there quickly. Whether it’s through email, personal instruction, or our private Facebook group, we are here to help any time you need it.
Constantly Growing Resource Library
Not only do you gain access to our exams and already existing lecture modules and video practice problems, but the library of problems continues to grow as we continue to make them. We even take suggestions if you need a specific topic you’d like covered.
Best Chances to Pass
Because you’re learning from someone that has been in the trenches, I can personally guide you through this tough exam. I’ve taken my model from Einstein who said, ” Everything should be made as simple as possible but not simpler.” I’ve developed this review to give you exactly what you need to pass.
Flexibility
We know how busy you are. I am too! I’ve developed this to be available any time you are ready to jump on and study. The flexibility of the course allows you to study on the train, in the office, or at home. Anywhere you have the internet you have this course ready to help. You can also review it at your own pace and schedule!
Tons of Video Practice Problems
This course will take you by the hand to help navigate you through a ton of video practice problems for every topic. There are currently over 150 video example problems found within the lectures and as stand-alone problems with more continually added. They are built with the same look, feel, and difficulty of the actual exam so that we can ensure you crush the test in proper fashion. It’s basically a library of problems that keeps on growing. Sweet!
Easy to Follow References
Let’s be honest here. You’ve already purchased or borrowed the massive PE Civil Reference Manual (CERM) from PPI – and if you haven’t don’t worry. We will point you in the right direction with all the material that you will need to get you going. Because we know that the PE Civil Reference Manual (CERM) is the most used tool in the industry, and we know you want references to it – so, we reference everything that we can out of that book to make it easy for you to follow along.
So go ahead, mark the heck out of it.
Pro Tip: If you don’t have the CERM then get it at PPI‘s store and use our discount code of CIVAC to get 15% off! This book is a must! Get the associated Practice Problem Book as well as you need to do homework with the schedule we build for you.
Accessible Anywhere
You’re a busy person – I get it and I’ve been there. Now you can study at your own pace whenever you want. No more being tied to a classroom to take a course. Everything is comprised of video-based lectures and video solved problems. Take it with you anywhere your device is. Study on the bus, the train, at work, your house, anywhere you have access to the internet and anytime you can squeeze in a couple of practice problems.
Power of Community
Have a question that needs to be answered? No problem. Want to celebrate the good news of passing? Excellent!! As part of this amazing course, you will gain access to a private Facebook group that will be there to help you, support you, and commiserate with you with anything you need. Your instructor will be there too, so you never feel left behind. We are here to support each other to pass this test. Check out some great examples below!
Certification of Completion
Need a certificate of completion for tuition reimbursement or just for personal achievement and satisfaction? We have you covered. After successfully completing the course you’ll automatically be awarded your certificate. We track it all so there’s nothing else you need to worry about.

Hi! I’m Isaac Oakeson and I’m the owner of The Ultimate Civil PE Review Course. Like you, I know how challenging and rewarding it is to be a Civil Engineer. I also know that in order to advance in this industry you need to study, take, and PASS the civil engineering PE exam; but with life’s busy schedule, and time seemingly disappearing every day, this is no small feat!
When I took and passed the civil engineering PE exam in 2012 I knew that I wanted to make the process easier for others. I know how hard it is to come back to studying after being away from college for 3 or 4 years. Sometimes you just need a good refresher, but most the time you need someone to get you going, and to hold you accountable.
My goal is to help you on your journey to becoming a PE. I set out to provide a course that you could access anywhere at anytime with tons of practice problems, which is the KEY to passing.
I am a practicing engineer working in the utility world. As a graduate of civil engineering from the University of Utah, and a fairly recent test taker, I know the ins and outs of the exam and I want to help you ace this test. I also recently received my MSE from the University of Arkansas. Part of the joys in life is the ability to help others achieve the goals they have. Let me help you ace this! Learn from my success and also my failures. Let’s get going!

If you aren’t happy with the course, it’s content, or it’s ability to help you take and pass the civil engineering PE exam then we will refund you 100% of the money you paid (must request within 15-days). It’s up to us to pass the test of your satisfaction.

FAQ
Absolutely. While the focus IS on the breadth section of the exam, the portions we do cover for your depth section will help. Our support will also help with any depth questions.
We would recommend starting with www.civilengineeringacademy.com for more practice exams to help you. You will find references to other great exams there too.
If you cancel within your first 15 days of service you can receive 100% of your money back. No questions asked. It’s on us to over-deliver.
No books are required for the course, but it is assumed that you will have purchased the Civil Engineering Reference Manual and the Practice Problems that are associated with that book. The “CERM” is THE most common book for the civil PE. Get it. We refer to all we can out of the CERM so you can follow along. Use the discount code CEA15 at www.ppi2pass.com to receive 15% off of your book total at checkout (see there’s good stuff down here).
All videos will have downloadable slides associated with the lectures. You can also download the practice exams and any other related material offered in the downloads section associated with your access level. Videos cannot be downloaded as they are proprietary to the site. A pdf of all the video practice problems is also provided so you can work them first.
While we wish we could guarantee that – passing is really left up to the individual student and is a function of how much work you put into studying and practicing. We do not make a guarantee that you’ll pass, but we know for darn sure that this course will set you up on a framework for success! Most courses say that their guarantee is to take the course again at no charge. We offer 1 year of access that covers 2 exam cycles right upfront.
Why, yes there is. Finish going through the course modules and you’ll magically receive one stamped with your name on it (it’s magical). Sometimes these are required for company reimbursement (if you’re company is cool like that).
The course has 10 lecture modules (with sub-modules) following the NCEES specifications. The videos for each lecture run from 10-40 minutes. So, there’s a lot of content. This doesn’t include the 150 video practice problems that run anywhere from 2 to 6 minutes. You’ll need time to digest this and that’s the point. You should be giving yourself at least 3 months to study hard for the PE exam and we will be here to help at every step of the way.
The course is made up of recorded lectures and video practice problems that you can viewed at your own pace. Live lectures or questions can be done as needed, but between the private Facebook community and communicating with the team through email support, we can typically tackle any questions you have or any challenges you need help with.
No. That’s why we are here to help you navigate it. First time takers fail 32-42% of the time. Repeat takers fail over 60% of the time (ouch). Check out NCEES.org for typical pass rates. They go up and down for each exam cycle. Don’t worry about the pass rates though – take this course and you’ll ace it.
We’ve polled our students for pass rates and we have determined they are about 85%. Not a bad boost for a first time or repeat taker if we say so ourselves.
