I'm sure this is not the case. I know it isn't in my county (Coos). To be an electrician here requires a 5 year apprentiship and classes at night. Then you have to take the exam and pass to be a journeyman. For journeymen coming in from out of state there are some variences, but you still have to now Oregon's electrical code.\n\nThe good part about Oregon's program however is that you can be working as an apprentice starting at 1/2 journeyman's wages while you are in school. Not too many other careers pay you to do your schooling!

Simply put, you can't.  As a former law enforcement offer from Oregon, I can tell you they don't make it as easy as they should.  However, there are plenty of resources available to you on-line to obtain such information.  Ultimately, you will have to pay to get the information you want.

If your talking about a license from the state, then you can go to most any contractor license training schools. Landscaping is one of the hardest to get, you have to know plumbing, contruction, safety, and the plant stuff. It's as hard to get as a GC. Good luck!

I doubt any definite license is needed for this. Low voltage wiring, in my state, requires no license so cable, sound systems, computer networks and so forth do not need some specific license. \n\nIf you're going to be dealing with electrical supplies and not just audio/video cables, then it would be good to have an electrician's license whether it is absolutely necessary or not.\n\nIf you're doing this as a business, a business license seems like a good idea, as well as incorporation and a DBA and insurance.\n\nI would want anyone doing security work to be bonded as well. If you're planning on working for someone else, just be bond-able. Clear up anything that would keep you from passing a background check.

Actually, electricians, like many other 'handy-man' type fields (plumbing, carpentry, etc.) don't necessarily require higher education, but it can help get your foot in the door.  The minimum requirements are usually a high school diploma with a minimum 2.5 GPA.\n\nDepending on where you live, your local Electrician Union will host an exam approximately every 3 months or so.  From my understanding, it's mostly a math test, with a few basic electrical questions thrown in.  If you pass the test, you get brought in for an interview at the Union headquarters.  This interview is scored (based on your past experiences in the field & the sincerity of your interest), and your combined test & interview score determines where you get placed on the hiring list.  From there, companies looking to hire new recruits contact the Union, who gives them the names on this list, in order.\n\nOnce you've been hired, you'll spend roughly half your time out working, and half your time in the classroom (this varies widely by the company, however).  As you gain more experience & advance further in school, you move up in rank (from apprentice to journeyman) and see significant raises in pay.\n\nIf you're in a highly competitive market, this is where going to school can help - it will add to your interview score.  Otherwise, work experience in other related fields, like construction, carpentry, anything involving electronics, etc. can also really help.\n\nYour other option would be to explore opportunities at non-union firms, however, there aren't nearly as many of these.  I'd approximate the ratio of union to non-union companies is about 4 to 1.  You'd probably need at least an associates degree to get hired by one of these companies.\n\nFor more information, try typing in IBEW (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers) and your city and/or county into Google.  Hopefully a link to your local IBEW will pop up.\n\nGood luck!

Better Business Bureau has nothing to do with licenses and permits. Start by going to the California Business Portal operated by the Secretary of State. They have a list of requirements as to how to start a business in California http://www.ss.ca.gov/business/resources.htm\n\nThen go to CalGOLD (California Government Online to Desktops). While they do not specifically issue the licenses, their database lists all the requirements for all types of businesses run in California and where you can get the necessary permit. They even give you the address and phone numbers of the agencies you have to go to for all the requirements. You will be asked what county you want to operate and their database will show results specific to that county.\n\nI did a search for the hair salon business as well as the Hair, Nail, and Skin Care Services, and CalGOLD's database shows that the following are permits you need to get:\n\n- Building and Construction Permit: Required for all new and remodeling construction, including change of occupancy.\n- Burglar Alarm Permit\n- Business License (Business Tax Certificate) Required for all entities doing business within city/county limits.\n- Fire Department Permit - Fire Protection: All businesses subject to annual inspection of facility.\n- Industrial Wastewater Discharge Permit: Required by most businesses discharging wastewater to the sewer system\n- Land Use Permit: Zone change, variance,conditional use permit\n- Zoning Approval: Permitted uses, development regulations, design review, sign permit, parking regulations.\n- Business Personal Property: Property used in the operation of a business such as machinery, equipment, trade fixtures, etc. is taxable and subject to assessment.\n- Fictitious Name Filing (DBA): Required if fictitious name is used\n- Barbering and Cosmetology License: Barbers, cosmetologists, electrologists, estheticians, manicurists, barber and cosmetologists instructors, and apprentices of the aforementioned, must be licensed.\n- Corporation, Company or Partnership Filings: If you are considering becoming a corporation, (either stock or nonprofit), a limited liability company or a partnership (limited, or limited liability), you must file with the Secretary of State's Office.\n- Occupational Safety and Health Information: Businesses with employees must prepare an Injury and Illness Prevention Plan. \n- Sales & Use Permit (Seller's Permit): All businesses selling or leasing tangible property must obtain a Seller's Permit.\n\nThis is a long list of requirements (California is not known as one of the easiest states to do business in). I suggest you go to CalGOLD and check out what you need to run your business.\n\nGood luck\nIsabel Isidro\nFor information on starting a business, visit http://www.powerhomebiz.com

It certainly is an electrifying career choice. You would need to pass an AMPtitude test in order to qualify. For about 220 bucks retail and 110 bucks wholesale you could take an online test if you don't get your wires crossed with your wife. Don't resistor or it could be shocking for you.

No...Your friend is what we call "BOOK LEARNED" he has no real world experience with wiring anything except maybe a lab class for a semester or his own stereo system. To become an "qualified electrician" you either have to go thru an apprenticeship program or take some state test (in case of contractors) or take test for your employer.

Get in touch with the relevant Professional Institution for details of their qualifications and what courses lead to them. Initially, look up their web sites! For Electrcal Engineering, there is an Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (Http://www.ieee.org), which is international and has national sections. For computing, in the United Kingdom where I live there is the British Computer Society (http://www.bcs.org), and there will be an equivalent in most overseas countries.\n\nAgain in the United Kingdom, the Open University is a leading provider of on-line courses (Http://www.open.ac.uk)\n\nThere are limits to the extent you can study Electrical/Computer Engineering on-line because you will need to do practical work to get a worthwhile qualification.

Your Alaska Alcohol Server permit will probably get you in the door of any business that requires an OLCC card but you will still have to take the Oregon test for your card. All state laws are different and that's the reason you have to take the Oregon test to be permitted to serve here in Oregon. It's not hard and most businesses will hire you if you have experience and then let you take the test a later date. Contact the OLCC board in Salem, Oregon and they can tell you all you need to know about what is required for your card. Good luck and welcome to Oregon.
