ESTA To Offer Entertainment Electrician Cert

ESTA is set to offer a certification for entertainment electricians. They’ve put a panel together to determine what should be on the test. The panel is looking for folks like us that do this sort of thing to help give them input as to what should be tested.

From the Theater Sound mailing list by John Huntington…

=======================
I’m a “subject matter expert” for this certification process, and I
lobbied hard to get on the panel so that (in addition to lighting, of
course) sound, video, control, scenic automation, etc people are
represented in the process (I’m the only sound guy on the
panel). To make sure the survey reflects all of us, we need your
help. While we will write the questions, the results of the
survey >>determine<< what is on the test, so a large response is
critically important.

If a significant part of your job is working with electricity, please
sign up today!!!

From ESTA ETCP:

Your input needed

The ETCP (Entertainment Technician
Certification Program) needs input from Electricians for the proposed
ETCP Electricians Certification and will be conducting a broad
reaching survey to help perform the job analysis. This analysis will
determine the common factors in what entertainment electricians do
and the relative importance of those tasks. Many hundreds of
responses are needed to ensure a fair and statistically significant survey.

If you are an experienced electrician, in any entertainment field or
venue, then please help by completing the survey. You can learn more
and sign up by submitting your name and address at this
page:- ETCP Electricians Survey

    Oh Happy Day! I’d walk to Vegas to take the test. Fortunately, I shouldn’t have to.
