"We are extremely proud to add some of Broadway's finest stage electricians to the list of ETCP Certified Technicians," said chairman of the Local's Board of Trustees, Paul F. Dean, Jr. who helped organise a four-day training course prior to the exam administration. "Our members who are ETCP Certified also include technicians from Lincoln Centre, The Metropolitan Opera House and various television studios who work throughout Local One's jurisdiction which includes Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, and Westchester and Putnam Counties."
Each of these Entertainment Electricians are now listed on the ETCP website at http://etcp.plasa.org. ETCP Certified Technicians can be identified on the jobsite by requesting to see their ETCP ID card that includes their picture, date of certification and most importantly, area(s) of specialty.
Paper and pencil administrations of any of the ETCP exams may be arranged locally for groups of 10 or more. Computer-based exams are available at 190 testing centres across the Unites States and Canada. Candidate information, including eligibility requirements and application forms, are available on the ETCP website.
