Check with BCD for the next OIC class to meet the requirements for the EI. After that I can help you command the authority of your chosen specialty in the electrical industry.

The BCD staff will turn around the grading of the exam usually in the same day they receive it. If you take the test on a Monday, the test is sent to BCD the next day and usually lands at BCD on Friday afternoon. Depending on the work load it can be graded and posted to the BCD website that day or on the following Monday in most cases. Remember it gets posted on the BCD website as soon as there is a passing score.

The current pass rate is 58% for those that apply for and sit for the exam.

After receiving the authorization letter from BCD you can schedule an exam every 30 days.
