Engineer brown has been engaged in providing consulting engineering services for a number of years as a sole proprietor. because his practice was growing, he recently hired another engineer and decided to commence offering professional services under the name of brown and associates. in order to comply with the rules he must:

Obtain a certificate of Authorization

Explanation:

c- Obtain a certificate of Authorization

d- No action by Engineer Brown is necessary

The answer is- Obtain a certificate of Authorization

A Certificate of Authorization (COA) is a certificate given to professional engineers or firms providing engineering services directly to the public. Any partnership, association of persons or corporations (in which one member is the sole shareholder, director, officer and employee) that hold a certificate of authorization may practice professional engineering in its own name.

Engineer Brown has commenced offering professional services to the public under the name of Brown and Associates, he therefore would require  a Certificate of Authorization in order to comply with the rules.
