Electrical Exam Preparation Strategies for Apprentices


Electrical exam preparation strategies for the journeyman exam may seem a bit difficult but we make it our mission to make things easy for you.

👉Apprentice electricians who are preparing for their electrical exam will need 3 things.

1. PSI Exam Candidate Bulletin
2. Seminars, Practice Exam book & Computer Practice Exam
3. NEC code book
