Approaching the 90 day deadline...

  It's been over 2 months since passing the exam and submitting my experience application... still waiting on the official certificate. I don't know what they do that would take 3 months, but they are waiting the entire 3 months to make this official. They did the same thing with our rookie when he passed his level 1. 

How much could there be to verify when they've been certifying me for the last 13 years?

NICET LEVEL 3 CERTIFIED!

 It is official! I passed theNICET level 3 advanced hydraulics course! Never thought it would actually happen. lol. It did take 2 tries… but I studied twice as hard after failing the first test by no more than 2 questions  and the re-test was cake! I had made it thru the first 53 questions with an hour left so I got the proctors attention and took a restroom break. I’m confident I walked out with 52 questions correct and 3 I had to take a total guess on. Video update to come!

NICET Level III - Advanced Hydraulics preperations have begun...

Life hasn't slowed down a bit... but today I decided I've waited long enough. $239.00 for 90 access to Firetech's online course. Fortunately I can turn this expense in to my employer once I've passed the test. 

I'm still nervous about this one... I know the general plans test turned out to be cake after the online course completion. But this one... I'm going to spend a couple weeks going through this before I commit to a test date. WISH ME LUCK!
