The NAFEMS Americas PSE subcommittee will work within the region to improve awareness and visibility of the PSE (Professional Simulation Engineer) certification offered by NAFEMS. The PSE pathway is a stringent process, with various areas of competency in which certification can be earned. The certification process relies on references and in-person interviews, and is far more challenging than a standardized test. The group will develop tools and strategies to better educate the simulation community about the advantages of gaining PSE certification.
