The Residential Electricians certificate provides an opportunity for students interested in working in the residential construction and building maintenance industries. Students will obtain skills and fundamental theories in all elements of electrical residential construction, including installation of service and entrance equipment, branch, circuit, conductors, device boxes, panel enclosures, overcurrent protective devices (circuit breakers), lighting, smoke detectors, fixtures, low-voltage and residential solar rooftop, and electrical solar system installation. The Residential Electrician program uses the National Center for Construction Education Research (NCCER) curriculum that includes competency-based assessments. NCCER is a national industry-recognized credential with the Department of Apprenticeship. Students completing the certificate will be able to register with the Department of Apprenticeship Standards as an electrician trainee (ET).
