No, however this system is designed to be taken by people in the electrical field as it supports their field experience. If you’re not an electrician or are not enrolled in an apprenticeship program you’re welcome to join however you may find it difficult to understand materials and methods of wiring without actual hands-on experience.
How long are the videos?
Most of our videos are around 5-10 minutes in length, however there are some topics which are split up into several smaller videos which take anywhere up to an hour to complete. Our system saves your progress so if you ever need to stop watching, you’ll be able to pick back up right where you left off.
Can I study at my own pace, or are there set class times?
This is a completely self-paced system. There are no classes, or scheduled times for any of the content. We realize you work in the field and will want to learn on your own time.
Do Electrician U courses count towards continuing education credits?
No, this learning system is for extracurricular learning. However we are approved in nearly every state that requires state-mandated continuing education so if you’re looking for continuing education credits check out our CE page for CEU’s in your state: https://www.electricianu2.com/continuing-education.
How up-to-date is the course material?
We add new content monthly so the content library is continuously expanding. We also update our code content as well as provide code update videos with every new code cycle.
Is there a discount for those of us who are currently Electrician U Members?
For those of you who are existing members of the Electrician U membership we’re grandfathering you in at your existing price. There will not be a price increase for you to move over from the membership to the new learning system. It’s the same price, just more content.
Is there a community or forum for students to interact and network?
We have both a dedicated Discord server and Facebook Group which are moderated and have tens of thousands of electricians in there teaching and asking questions daily. Feel free to join our Discord group here and join our Facebook group here.
