The National Wireless Safety Alliance (NWSA) announced the opening of registration for the upcoming Telecommunications Tower Technician Practical Examiner Accreditation Program (PEAP) Workshops. The events are scheduled for September 29-October 1, 2020 in Nashville, Tennessee, hosted by Comstar, and October 13-15, 2020 in Salt Lake City, Utah, hosted by Petzl America.

- Have three (3) years of industry-related experience;
- Attend a NWSA Practical Examiner Accreditation Workshop, during which your performance as a Practical Examiner will be observed and evaluated;
- Pass a Practical Examiner Accreditation Program (PEAP) Workshop written exam testing your knowledge of the role of the Practical Examiner and the test administration process;
- Pass the practical exam(s) in the presence of an NWSA representative (even if currently certified); and
- Have a direct email address to receive email notifications from NWSA (this may not be a shared address).
Individuals interested in participating are encouraged to complete the NWSA PEAP Workshop application here and return it to NWSA via email to jeniel.shaw@nws-a.org. The deadline to register for a workshop is two weeks prior to the first day of the scheduled event.
