This class meets on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:00 - 8:00 PM in the Electrical Technology Classroom at the Poteau Campus.

Classes begin on January 6 and will conclude on December 17, 2026, but are subject to change. This class will not meet in the summer; classes are not in session from May 27 - August 10, but this is subject to change.

Of the 500 hours, 222 hours are mandatory in-person training with 278 hours of self-guided online instruction that you may complete at your own pace and accordance with your own schedule. There will be assignments and exams that will have due dates and students are responsible for managing their coursework and deadlines.

There will not be time for remediation in-class as this time is designed for hands-on training with the instructor.

Attendance in this training program is mandatory, students are only permitted to miss a maximum of 9 training hours per semester. If a student misses more than 9 hours of class in a semester, they will be dropped from the program.
