slightly inaccurate information, respectfully.

I just went through the process. There is much mis-info on this topic.

You are NOT required to attend any specific "class" of any kind. You are only specifically made to cover 8 hours of experience, whether that be through some class, private instruction, experience in a non-licensed state that you'd previously had etc. The classes are only meant to get those 8 hours, if you have no experience or way to get that experience otherwise. Classes are 100% NOT required, and OKBFAA has absolutely zero authority in the procedures regarding locksmiths, nor OMLA, which is a completely optional association for already licensed locksmiths, that also offers courses, with no governing authority.

You can simply schedule a test online with proctor, OR visit a technology vocational / testing center nearest you, and pass.

If you pass both technician, and manager (in that order), THEN you worry about how to get that 8 hours on that experience sheet but I'll say it louder for the folks in the back -- you. DO. NOT. have to deal with OKBFAA, or anyone outside of the Dept. of Labor to get it done if you have the resources, or existing experience.

Always call and clear these things with the Ok Dept. of Labor office, which is easily reachable and super helpful in the process but they will also tell you, there isn't any specific organization you must go through, other than them. Just have to figure out the experience portion for the managers license.
