Applications
Online or Correspondence Continuing Education Application
If you are interested in presenting a continuing education course, use the Instructor and Course Application. Courses are approved on a date basis only.
Continuing Education Requirements
To renew your license (every even year) you must have at least 16 hours of continuing education. Eight hours must be code-related. The remaining eight hours may be non-code.
Important Reminder
The South Dakota Electrical Commission plans to move forward with renewal and the continuing education requirements without change. Licensees are required to attain 16 hours of continuing education by the time of renewal or by June 30, whichever is sooner. A minimum of eight hours are required to be on the National Electric Code. In addition, only eight hours are allowed to be pre-approved correspondence or interactive online courses. Licensees are required to remit the certificate of completion to the Commission office once an online class has been completed.
PLEASE NOTE, due to the limitations on in-person events due to COVID-19 and the uncertainty it may cause over the next few months, the Commission will allow all continuing education hours to be gained online for the 2020 renewal cycle.
Please also note some local providers are preparing webinars in anticipation of this change, so please be sure to check with local providers
The South Dakota Electrical Commission will no longer provide the annual three-hour code classes.
