How Electricity Harms
What current does to a body, the difference between a shock and an arc flash, and why the voltages people dismiss are the ones that kill most often.
De-energise and Verify
The rule the whole trade is built on, the lockout procedure that enforces it, the test that proves it, and the energy that stays behind after the switch is open.
The System Around You
Grounding, bonding and overcurrent protection in plain terms — what the safety systems in a building are actually for, and what protective equipment does and does not do.
On Site, and Year One
The hazards that injure electricians most often are not all electrical. What the statistics say, what a first year expects of you, and what this course is not.
The free account only saves your progress and lets you take the exam. No payment, and no card — the certificate is the only thing we ever charge for.
Certificate of Completion
Pass the final exam and you can add a certificate for $9.90. It carries a unique ID and a public verification page an employer can check without going through you. The course stays free either way.
It states what you completed — not a licence, and not a substitute for the hands-on training and evaluation your employer provides.

What this course is.
The classroom half — the part you can finish on your own, before you touch a machine. Your employer does the rest.
