    No you can't do it in Ireland the rules in each province are different so would depend where you are going as to when you can sit it

    Just a quick one for anybody who may know, I am filling the form for AIT to recognise my qualification as an electrician. Just wondering is it just me or is there a ridiculous amount of info to fill in on this. It asks for you to fill in what work you carried out while with each employer in detail, did anybody actually fill all this in or has anybody got a copy they filled in i could have a look at.....Is it not enough to have a trade cert and and the required amount of months done without going through every single thing i did with the employers. seems a bit much to me.????
    As far as I was aware they now just go off your trade cert and dont look at anything else....Has anybody went through this recently.

    You'll need to fill out the form as fully as possible. Otherwise you'll risk not getting your qualifications approved.

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨

    Hi, everyone.
    Just applied for my challenge exam in ITA at British Colombia. To be precised in construction electrician. I have 10,400hrs, but out of 12 tasks, I knew 8. But got 66% out of 70% and not approved. Ask to re-apply n learn one more task before l could qualified. My question is when can l apply again. Need help from experience people thanks.
