This class of inductees included those who weren't able to attend any of the first three ceremonies, as well as a few new Diplomates.

"Certification is a demonstration of expertise and experience in a specialized field. It sets us apart from those who have not attained this level. Ideally, clients will recognize the value of specialty certification, and require it as part of their selection selection processes."

- Blaine Leonard, P.E., D.GE, F.ASCE, President ASCE

"Earning a college degree in engineering is a significant accomplishment,"

said Arlan Rippe, P.E., D.GE, F.ASCE, AGP president.

"Specialty certification provides an advanced certificate of achievement, which greatly enhances the engineer's career development. It also gives the public further confidence in the competence of our geo-professionals."
