Technology Courses: Courses

Introduction

This course is to provide training for the non electrical worker that may be exposed to electrical hazards due to the nature of job assignments.

Objectives:

• Provide awareness of potential electrical hazards information
  

• How to identify potential electrical hazards
  

• When and where prohibited areas are located
  

• Proper procedure to handle electrical hazards
  

• Training germane to electrical exposure
  

Participants must complete all courses with germane modules matched to job assignments and classifications. A proctored final exam is required when courses are complete.

Introduction

For those working on or with live electrical circuits during normal job assignments. For those installing electrical circuits, equipment, conductors, and wiring methods. This person will understand electrical theory as applied to electrical standards and codes. This participant will need to be actively working in the electrical field as an installer, troubleshooter, maintenance, construction or engineer. For prerequisites requirements see the Qualified Worker Series Syllabus.

Those who do not meet the prerequisite requirements for this certificate will need to start at the Fundamentals of Electrical Science course if they plan to be classified as a skilled electrical worker such as: Electrician, Electrical Technician, HVAC Technician or Electrical Engineer.

Welders, Operators, Laborers, Machinist, Pipefitters and other non electrical workers should take the course Certification for Non-Electrical Workers.
