Administration Fee Waived for Organizations Offering ETCP Electrical Paper and Pencil ExamsIn order to keep the ETCP (Entertainment Technician Certification Program) examinations fresh and current, the subject matter experts have written new questions for the Entertainment Electrician examination. ETCP is set to launch these questions October 15, 2014. To gather the statistical data necessary to properly score the exam, it is essential that as many entertainment electricians as possible are tested from October 15 thru December 15. To further this initiative, the test administration fee of $675 for groups of ten or more will be waived during this time. Candidate application fees will still apply and score reports will be delayed. Having candidates test between these dates is an enormous help to the growth of the program. ETCP will send a proctor for the group, but space must be provided by the organization. A list of testing requirements can be found at: http://plasa.me/8ze7a. Test administration requests must be received five weeks prior to the exam date, and candidate application deadlines will be set by the certification manager. Candidates must fill out the "Pre-arranged Paper and Pencil Application Form," available on the URL below. Any organization interested in offering other onsite paper and pencil examinations, please contact Meredith Moseley-Bennett, ETCP Certification Manager, at 212-244-1505 or etcp@plasa.org. Candidate information, including eligibility requirements and applications, is available on the ETCP website at the URL below. The ETCP Council members are key leaders drawn from entertainment business, labor, facilities, associations, and academia representing the diversity of the entertainment industry. Membership includes PLASA, Actsafe, AMPTP, Cirque du Soleil/MGM MIRAGE, CITT, Disney Theatrical Productions, IAVM, IATSE, InfoComm, The League, Live Nation, PRG, TEA, and USITT. ETCP is a PLASA initiative created to promote industry safety.
