Why get Installer Certified?

CALCTP will dramatically increase the demand for lighting controls in commercial buildings. Becoming certified will help connect you with new customers, and will allow you to take advantage of this exciting and growing business opportunity.

What is Covered in the Installation Course?

This course is divided into seven modules consisting of both lecture and lab activities. The module content is organized to answer the following about lighting controls: what they are, what they do, where they are used and how they are installed. Each lecture contains one or more interactive components, including group discussions, device demonstrations and/or calculation exercises.

The corresponding lab period, following the lecture, allows the attendee to directly apply what has been learned by installing the devices on electrical lab board, under the supervision of the CALCTP-certified instructor(s). The Installer Contractor Course is not related to CALCTP Acceptance Test Certification. If you are interested in Acceptance Testing, contact CALCTP to find a class in your area. CALCTP can be contacted by email at info@calctp.org.
