This will be the third year practising licences have been available on line and the service is progressively being used by more people. This month will see the introduction of practicing licence applications and associated material being electronically sent to approximately 9,000 people for whom we have email addresses. These people will not receive "hard copy" material. This is a continuation of the enhancement introduced last year when the material was sent to both mediums. On behalf of the Board I would like to thank those people who support the practising licence requirements. Following enquiries from those sitting exams in June and September these are the documents required for Board exams. Electrical service technician A (19 June 2004, 18 September 2004)
