2005 National Electrical Code Training
We are very excited to announce that NYAPPA is sponsoring the 2005 National Electrical Code training course to be April 26th, 27th and 28th at Dutchess Community College (CBI Building Room 102) in Poughkeepsie New York. Class will begin each day at 8AM and go until 4.
The course will be presented by Learn Maintenance, Inc. The instructor will be teaching participants how to find, interpret, and apply the National Electrical Code. Exercises will be done in class pertaining to situations typically found in College facilities. I have attached the course outline for your information.
The cost of this training will be $160; lunch each day is included in this fee. NYAPPA will be providing each participant with a 2005 National Electrical Code book (a $65 value)! The Best Western Hotel in Poughkeepsie is holding a block of rooms for attendees for $79 per night including breakfast. Participants are to make their own arrangements with the hotel. Please refer to NYAPPA Conference when calling.
Please return the conference registration form* and payment in the form of a check payable to NYAPPA and mail to:

THE 2005 NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
Course Description: The 2005 National Electrical Code course provides the latest information regarding changes to the NEC. The course is composed of a stand-alone, two-day core that teaches participants how to find, interpret, and apply NEC standards.
Who Should Attend: Electrical engineers and contractors, inspectors, construction and maintenance electricians, designers, supervisors, safety engineers, and apprentices.
Format: Instructor-directed problem solving, independent problem solving practice, and limited lecture
Core Module Learning Objectives Participants will learn to:
- Find an applicable section of the 2005 National Electrical Code
- Interpret 2005 National Electrical Code standards
- Apply exceptions to 2005 National Electrical Code standards
