First, you get good grades in highschool so you can get into college. Then you work hard for 4 years and graduate with a degree in engineering: civil, electrical, mechanical, and so on.

At some point, perhaps even before you graduate, you take a very difficult test from your state's licensing department. If you pass, you are issued an EIT certificate. (Engineer in Training) After 4 years (commonly) of apprenticeship under a licensed engineering, you take the PE test from your state's licensing department (PE = professional engineer) and if you pass this test, you are awarded a PE certificate, and you may practice engineering and stamp drawings with your PE stamp.
