Brothers and Sisters,

As Construction Wireman Step 6, it’s time to prepare for your State Certification Test. If you already have your State Cert, email a copy to jwaltman@ibew11.org.

If you don’t have it yet, begin immediately, the application process takes time. Once approved, you’ll have one year to take the test.

1. Complete the Request for Social Security Earnings Information Form (non-certified report): ssa.gov/forms/ssa-7050.pdf
2. Submit the Application for Electrician Examination and Certification with your SSA report: dir.ca.gov/DLSE/ECU/ElectricalCertificationForm.pdf
3. After mailing both forms, contact ETI to enroll in the License Prep Class or online review.
4. Once approved, schedule your exam.
5. Have all contractors providing your 8,000 hours submit letters confirming your work duties and dates.
6. Send your exam results to Jwaltman@ibew11.org ASAP.

To qualify for the Local 11 Journeyman Wireman exam, complete these four classes: Motor Control, Transformers, LAQSP, and Advanced Conduit Bending.

It’s an honor to represent you. Stay safe and look out for one another.
