Is this course approved in Washington?

Yes. The Washington State Department of Labor and Industries — L&I — approved it on September 1, 2026 as course WA2026-554, in the industry-related category, for 4 hours. Trade Code Solutions LLC is the approved sponsor, number 3291. The approval runs through September 1, 2029, and L&I approved it as an internet course, so taking it online is exactly how it was filed.

How many of my hours does this cover?

Four. Washington asks for 24 hours every 3 years: at least 8 on changes to the National Electrical Code, at least 4 on Washington law and rules, and the remaining 12 on approved industry-related subjects. This course is 4 of those industry-related hours.

Is there an exam at the end?

No. Washington measures this class in time in the seat, not a test score. Watch all four hours in order, confirm your identity at the checkpoints, and you're done.

How do my hours get reported to L&I?

Trade Code Solutions posts your completion to L&I's roster system for you. Washington's rule gives sponsors 7 days to post it, so there is nothing for you to file. Have your Washington certificate or license number ready when you enroll; that is how L&I matches the hours to you.

Can I take this class again next cycle?

Not within the same cycle. Washington will not give you credit for the same class twice in one 3-year cycle, so plan this one as four of your industry-related hours rather than a repeat.

How long does it actually take?

Washington counts a continuing-education hour as 60 minutes, so the course runs 240 minutes of instruction time before the certificate can issue. You can take it in one sitting or many — your progress saves.

How it worksWatch in order, confirm it’s you, done

The course plays in order, start to finish — that's how Washington wants continuing education delivered, and it's how your hours hold up if the state ever asks. Along the way we'll pause a few times and ask you to confirm your name and certificate number, so the record shows it was you in the seat the whole time.

Washington counts a continuing-education hour as 60 minutes, so the certificate issues after 240minutes of instruction time. When you finish, two things happen: your certificate of completion is issued to you, and your completion is posted to L&I — you don't file anything yourself.

Have your Washington certificate or license number handy when you enroll. We ask for it at checkout so your hours are posted against the right certificate. We never ask for a Social Security number.

What’s coveredFour hours, six parts

The NFPA 70E-2024 workflow in the order you'd actually use it on a job.

Foundations. What NFPA 70E is, how it sits next to the National Electrical Code and the OSHA rules, and the five approach boundaries.
The safety program. What a written electrical safety program has to contain, who owns it, and how audits and training fit in.
An electrically safe work condition. The step-by-step process for taking equipment out of service and proving it is actually dead before you touch it.
Energized work. When energized work is permitted at all, what the energized electrical work permit has to say, and how the risk assessment is done.
Arc-flash and shock protective equipment. Choosing the right protective equipment for the incident energy, and reading the labels and tables that tell you which.
Putting it together. Working the whole sequence on realistic jobs, start to finish.

Who it’s forWashington certificate holders on the 24-hour cycle

Washington certificate holders who renew on 24 hours every 3 years:

Electricians holding a Washington certificate of competency.
Master electricians.
Electrical administrators.

Not for trainees. Washington puts electrical trainees on a separate basic-classroom requirement and does not let trainees use internet or correspondence classes for it, so this course won't count for a trainee.
