I would doubt the validity of that claim until I see answers to these four questions.
Truthly guys, I could care less if you believe the validity of that claim. I was simply responding to the op's question with first hand knowledge. Unlike many on this forum who feel they have to respond to every single post (whether they have any knowledge of the subject or not) I do not respond unless I have some knowledge that is of use. I see many post on this forum that I doubt, but I do not comment on them. But since my truthfulness has been questioned, I will attempt to answer your four questions:
How many test did I take? I have actually taken 42 state exams nationwide. This includes exams for Master Electrician, Electrical Contractor, Journeyman, and Business & Law exams. Now I know some of you are not going to believe that I am licensed 41 states, and have taken 42 exams. But a lot of states require a master license and an EC license, and some states require a B&L exam in addition to the electrical exams. The state of Massachusetts requires a Journeyman and Master license.
Am I making money in 41 states? Well since I can only live in one state at a time, I guess I am only making money in my home state. But yes, I am well compensated by my employer who has a need for these licenses.
Renewal fees in 41 states? Paid by my employer.
Can I remember all the states? Well we do have computers these days that can make these things called Excel spreadsheets. If you are not familiar with them, you should educate yourself.
Continuing Education? It is taken care of between live seminars that I attend yearly with a couple of providers- MH being one of them. In fact, Ilene at MH takes great care of all my CE needs.
Back door licensing?? What in the world is that? Trust me, if there was a back door avenue available, I would have found it before I sat for all these exams. In fact, every state had to verify my experience and education before allowing me to test. Probably more so since I was from out of state (and not one of the boys). I have tested with Prometric, ICC, Lasergrade, PSI, and all of the various states that self administer their exam.
I hope this answers some of your questions, but quite frankly I could care less if it does or doesn't. Just a little advise to some of you- please have some knowledge of the post that you are responding to. Just because someone has more knowledge in a certain area than you, that does not automatically make them a liar.
