Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an electrician's license to enroll?
No license is required to enroll or complete the training. However, EV charger installation in most jurisdictions requires a licensed electrician to pull permits and perform the work. The course is designed for licensed electricians looking to specialize, but homeowners and project managers also enroll for general knowledge.
Does this course prepare me for EVITP certification?
Yes. The EVCharger Academy curriculum covers the same NEC Article 625, load calculation, and EV system content that the EVITP exam tests on. Most students find the $39 course significantly reduces review time when they go on to complete the $395 EVITP certification program.
How long does the EV charger installation course take to complete?
The core curriculum can be completed in a focused weekend or spread across 1–2 weeks of evening sessions. With lifetime access at $39, there's no deadline — you can revisit NEC sections and load calculation worksheets anytime a specific job requires it.
