ORLANDO, FL — NSCA executive director Chuck Wilson announced on December 28, 2006, that the Florida Electrical Contractor's Licensing Board and the Florida Board of Professional Engineers have both approved the NSCA (National Systems Contractors Association) as a continuing education provider. The NSCA now offers 12 classes accredited as continuing education courses for those seeking to renew their electrical contractor's license in the state of Florida. A slate of 33 courses scheduled for the NSCA's upcoming Expo 2007 in Orlando will additionally offer CEU credit to help Florida's engineers fulfill their state license renewal requirements. Wilson said. "Virtually everyone that does low voltage work in Florida must be licensed. Over the years, many in the state have asked the NSCA to serve as a source of the continuing education required of the licensing renewal process. It's been our goal to continue providing the most advanced course of study in our field, and to that end, now we're offering fully accredited training classes."
The 12 classes designed to meet the needs of Florida's electronic systems contractors will cover topics ranging from audio system tips, techniques and troubleshooting to other courses focusing on management skills and video signal processing.
A sampling of the 33 classes accredited by the Florida Board of Professional Engineers includes Access Control Systems Design, Loudspeaker Layout Design, Computer-based System Design Using EASE 4.1, Broadband Basic and Design Considerations for the Corporate Market.
NSCA Expo 2007 will be held at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando on March 15-17. Featuring a number of other educational opportunities and business seminars, plus manufacturer's exhibits showcasing the latest technologies, the annual event is free for members.
