Additional Information
The NC Electrical Board requires licensees to complete 8 hours of continuing education for license renewal each year, four of those hours must be obtained from a classroom setting. NC licensees can bank up to 3 years worth of continuing education hours at any time.
The NEC test for Virginia meets the requirements of the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation for the Commonwealth of Virginia. The test for VA is good for 3 credit hours, which satisfies the Virginia requirement of 3 credit hours during the two year term of the license. Hours can not be banked for Virginia licensing. CECA Continuing Education Class also meets the requirements of the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation for the Commonwealth of Virginia for licensing purposes.
CECA Continuing Education Class is also approved by the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board for 8 hours of Continuing Education Credit.
What are the continuing education requirements for the NCBEEC (North Carolina Board of Examiners of Electrical Contractors)?
While the requirement is still that each licensee must have 8 hours of continuing education, on July 1 2008 the annual requirement was adjusted as follows: a licensee must obtain 4 of the hours in a classroom setting and the other 4 hours may be obtained by several means including tests (online and paper form). Contractors may bank up to 3 years worth of continuing education credit at any time.
