This certificate is recognized throughout Oregon and industry-wide as a valid indicator of high quality, standardized training, and it provides on-the-job training documentation for community college credit. Licensing or Other Certification: Electrician trades require successful completion of trade-specific licensure examinations through the Oregon Building Codes Division.
