3. Special Written ExaminationsSpecial examinations are available for individual candidates for electrician theory and regulations, inspector theory and electrical service technician written examinations. Generally, special examinations are offered where the candidate's circumstances have precluded them from sitting an examination at a regular time. Often special examinations are offered in conjunction with assistance as per section 2 above. When applying for a special examination, the applicant:
- Must pay the special examination fee.
- Must undertake a course of tuition relevant to the examination. This can include the requirement that the tuition be "one-on-one".
- Has 3 months in which to contact the Board and arrange a place for the examination.
The supervisor for a special examination is arranged by the Board or is approved by the Board. The fees (if any) for supervision are paid by the candidate and are a matter for negotiation between the supervisor and candidate. Where a candidate responds within the 3 months, the date, time and place of the examination is as agreed between the Board and candidate, within the time and resources available. Generally, very few special examinations are conducted because assistance is available through the Board for examinations.
