Some have said Grandfathering is long gone and we need to move on .
Well I and many others disagree and I see they still grandfather Electricians like my Brothers did 60 years ago .
Looks like it still works well …
An electrical license can be received through the grandfather clause.
Most states have testing or examination requirements that must be met before a person can receive an electrical license, but many of these states also have a grandfather clause. This grandfather clause allows certain professionals to receive an electrical license without meeting the standard educational or examination requirements as long as the individual has enough on-the-job experience as an electrician. The on-the-job experience required to qualify varies from state-to-state, so it’s best to check with your state licensing board to determine how much experience is necessary to fall under the grandfather
For clarification - no embellishment offered - it is plainly clear!
"the NHICC is registered as an organization member of ICE - Institute for Credentialing Excellence (formerly the National Organization for Competency Assurance).
Claude, anyone can form an “Institute” in the U.S. That same institute certified ASHI and ASHI doesn’t even have entrance requirements. What’s that say?
This so-called institute started out certifying wedding planners, then they changed their name to certify diploma mills.
I could not find anything related to Canada on this ice certification mill.
I noticed they were not accepted in Florida and InterNACHI is.
What’s that all about?
BTW: Those alleged “wedding planners” actually started with the medical “professionals” and also include many of the engineering and constuction disciplines.
:shock:
