In 2020, Utah DOPL introduced an Expedited Licensure rule R156-55b-302c.  This rule allows for apprentices to “test out” of various semesters of school.  

Here are the guidelines and policies for IEC Education of Utah

• Apprentices who have a Utah apprentice license are eligible to take each test one time only. (No re-takes)  In order to take a test, you must have passed the previous semester class or test.
• Tests will be administered by appointment only.  The test is a written, hand-scored test.  Results will be available within 24 hours.
• One-time $50 fee to begin the testing process, you are eligible to continue testing until you fail. (1A, 1B , 2A, etc.) 
• The one time $50 fee (less credit card fees) is refundable if notice is given within 2 business days of your scheduled test date. Failure to do so will result in no refund, to cancel or reschedule please email info@iecofutah.com
• $200 additional fee if the student passes the test.  This is the fee for the credit to be maintained in our computer report-card system. This fee is applicable per semester. (example: if you pass 2A and 2B there is a $400 fee to maintain the transcript)
