Training completion and electrical licensing are separate

Choose the jurisdiction and licence class for the work you intend to do.

The qualification is not an automatic licence. State or territory regulators decide licence classes, supervised permissions, evidence and eligibility. Contractor permissions differ from employee work permissions.
