Recommended Prerequisite for Electrician Trainees: GET WIRED! 100 & 200 Series, & 301

Coordinate cut sheets, submittals, the NEC and more with blueprints to plan electrical installation for commercial construction.

Students will use genuine construction plans (digital blueprints) and related documents to learn how to coordinate documents, work with other trades, and identify ways to save money through careful planning.

A 2020 NEC book, a set of digital blueprints and a digital student resource booklet are required for this course.

The digital blueprints and the student resource booklet, pre-loaded on a mobile tablet, are included in the cost of the tuition. The tablet with blueprints and the student resource booklet are used for both the Blueprint Reading Part 1 and Part 2 (GET WIRED! 301 and 302) courses. If you did not already receive a tablet in GetWired! 301, you will receive one as part of your enrollment in GetWired! 302. Students who already received a tablet in GetWired! 301 do not receive a second tablet with enrollment in GetWired! 302.

WECA provides this mobile tablet, pre-loaded with the digital blueprints and the student resource booklet, to enhance your educational experience by allowing you to view and interact with the blueprints on this mobile device, just as many electricians now do in the field, while simultaneously following along with the self-paced course modules on your primary computer.

One tablet is provided per student, whether first provided in GetWired! 301 or GetWired! 302. The tablet is included in the course tuition and is the student’s to keep. WECA cannot split the tablet and tuition costs. Additional tablets beyond the one included in course tuition may be purchased from WECA at a competitive price—contact WECA client services for current pricing.
