CEA - New Exam Resources at the School of PE with President Vinod Dega

<p>For the loyal CEA audience out there that listened to a previous episode on the best resources for the AM portion of the PE exam, the School of PE is already a well-known and innovative player in the exam preparation material industry. With its recently released breadth review guide, it brought a modern feel to the industry by not only providing a different printing style but also an integrated use of technology to enhance the learning experience. Today, Isaac sits down to talk to the man in charge of all this. &nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;Vinod Dega is a civil engineer and School of PE’s president who came from India to the US to get his Master's in Transportation Engineering at the Ohio State University. His passion for teaching and helping others made him notice that many people would struggle in their preparation for the FE and PE exams - what started out as him personally teaching colleagues, has now become a key company in the exam preparation industry today, with 7 books published, lots of question banks developed, and a lot of students enrolled in their courses. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Vinod and Isaac discuss the process for developing the PE manuals and review guides, the decision to include AR features in the books, and how the ever-changing NCEES spec may affect the School of PE’s materials. In addition, Vinod mentions the importance of getting a professional license no matter how long we’ve been out of school, as well as the best advice he’s ever received in his life and who gave it to him. Hint: The author of the “Bible” for the PE exam. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Resources Mentioned </strong>&nbsp;(some links are affiliate links)</p> <p>Vinod Dega - https://www.linkedin.com/in/vinod-dega-4b6b9144 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>School of PE - http://www.civilengineeringacademy.com/sope &nbsp;&nbsp;Ohio State University - https://www.osu.edu &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>HoloPundits - https://www.holopundits.com &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Total AR - https://www.totalar.com &nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>PE Civil Exam Review Guide
