When you’ve gone through all the work of getting your license in the first place, the last thing you want to do is let it lapse. To help you avoid missing your renewal deadlines, we’ve compiled all the information you need in this convenient blog post. 

Why You’ll Want to Renew Your License on Time 

Being an electrician is a fulfilling career. Once you have obtained your license, you will have access to a variety of jobs and employment opportunities. Plus, in today’s turbulent market, a trade like electrical contracting is a steady and reliable field of work. 

Of course, if you fail to renew your license, you won’t be able to perform any work. This could jeopardize your ongoing projects and relationships in the field. Fortunately, renewing your license is not hard—especially with the help of RocketCert. Find out what steps you need to take to get your license up-to-date.

Step One: Understand Your License Type

The type of license you have will determine how and when you must renew. If you are an Alabama electrical contractor, you have to complete 14 hours of continuing education every two years to keep your license up to date. If you are a journeyman electrical contractor, you don’t have to complete any continuing education. 

The continuing education curriculum is more than just busywork. It allows you to stay up-to-date with NEC code changes and updates. This will help you continue to keep your projects safe and successful. 

Step Two: Purchase and Complete Your Training

The easiest way to complete your training is to invest in an online course. At RocketCert, our courses are fully narrated and easy to follow. Plus, you’ll be able to access them for the rest of your life. So if you ever have questions down the road, you can refer to our materials again and again.

There are 14 hours of continuing education required for an electrical license renewal in Alabama. Fortunately, you won’t have to take them all at once. And since RocketCert courses are available 24/7, you can complete your training at your own pace.

Step Three: Obtain Your Certificate

Once you’ve completed your training, you must contact the Alabama Board of Electrical Contractors to inform them of the completion. Or, you can take the easy road and allow RocketCert to contact the board for you! 

Either way, you’ll need to print your certificate of renewal and post it at your place of work until the next renewal deadline comes.
