Board Discusses 2025 Reapplications and Testing Logistics for Upcoming Apprenticeships
In the heart of Evansville's city hall, members of the Electrical Board gathered on December 5, 2024, to discuss crucial updates and future plans for the local electrical testing program. As the year draws to a close, the board is focused on implementing a new ranking system for apprentices, aiming for full deployment by early 2025.

The meeting highlighted the urgency of finalizing logistics with Prometric, the testing service provider. Board members expressed a desire to expedite the process, ensuring that apprentices can confidently prepare for their upcoming tests. “I would love to be able to tell my apprentices before they go on vacation that their test will be ready,” one member noted, emphasizing the importance of clear communication as the holiday season approaches.

While the board is currently operating with a reduced number of tests—less than 2,000—there is optimism about the future. Members discussed the need for apprentices to complete their hours before they can take the test, which is expected to be available around May 2025. This timeline is crucial for ensuring that all candidates are adequately prepared and qualified.

In addition to the testing updates, the board addressed the reapplication process for members wishing to continue their service into 2025. Members were reminded to submit their applications online before the January 2 meeting, where they will be sworn in to continue their work. The atmosphere was one of camaraderie, with members encouraging each other to stay engaged and involved in the board's activities.

As the meeting wrapped up, the board set its sights on the new year, ready to tackle the challenges ahead and support the next generation of electrical professionals in Evansville. The next meeting is scheduled for January 2, 2025, where the board will reconvene to continue its important work.
