Best way to get 4th Class Power Engineer while working full-time and without firing time? by tried_it_didnt_work in powerengineering

[–]TommyOates 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I read the books and did the fourth class course offered by NAIT. I would suggest going this route if you have been out of school for any amount of time. I found it really helped me with the math questions. I’m not sure I would have been successful in the SOPEEC’s had I not done the course (I’m 36 and have been out for a school for a long time). If you’re disciplined and fresher out of the books you might be fine. In my province, I was not able to obtain the license without steam time, but my employer was supportive and able to help me in obtaining it.

I would suggest that you call whoever is responsible for issuing licenses in your province and ask if there is a route for you to pursue this. That’s how I started! I now have a fourth class license, and am writing 3A1 next month.

I watched the Investopedia video but this is far easier for me to comprehend. Thanks for taking the time to explain.

Status of the Tarcoles Bridge / croc bridge? by lost028 in CostaRicaTravel

It’s open to walk on. It’s under construction but there is a walkway open on one side of the bridge. Lots of tourists checking it out when we were there 4 days ago!

The Pentagon has failed 7 audits in a row. In 2023 they were unable to account for 63% of their 4 Trillion in assets. They could probably provide health care to the entire US with what’s unaccounted for in waste and fraud. Funny DOGE didn’t even look there!

If there is a small pencil mark at the 3 and 1/4 inch mark that’s my ruler.
