Decision question
After accepting employment conditioned on PE licensure within 90 days and then failing the PE exam a third time with State X board-imposed additional requirements triggered, was Engineer Intern A ethically obligated to notify XYZ Consultants promptly and to disclose the full scope of the board-imposed restrictions — not merely the fact of the failure?
Focus
Engineer Intern A's post-hire obligation — once employed under the 90-day licensure condition — to notify XYZ Consultants promptly and completely upon learning that his third PE exam attempt had failed and that the State X licensing board had imposed additional requirements before he could re-sit the examination, including the scope and likely duration of those board-imposed impediments.
Option1
Promptly notify XYZ Consultants of the third exam failure and fully disclose the nature, scope, and likely duration of all board-imposed additional requirements, enabling the employer to immediately reassess project staffing, client commitments, and the feasibility of the original 90-day licensure condition
Option2
Notify XYZ Consultants of the third exam failure promptly but defer full disclosure of the board-imposed additional requirements until their scope and duration are formally confirmed by the State X board, to avoid conveying speculative or incomplete regulatory information to the employer
Option3
Disclose the third exam failure to the supervisor as a personal employment matter while simultaneously consulting with the State X board and a licensing attorney to develop a concrete remediation plan, then present the employer with both the failure disclosure and a proposed revised licensure timeline as a package, minimizing disruption to the employment relationship
Role
Engineer Intern A (Post-Hire)
