What it counts for

  • If it counts, the nonresidential maintenance (07) certificate needs 4,000 hours of work as a trainee, and an approved program counts for up to half of them.
  • Ask the school in writing whether this program earns work hours, and how many.
  • You need an L&I training certificate the whole time you’re enrolled.
