There will be no more in-person exams, as of April 10, 2020, you will need to use Pearson Vue to take the exam.

The Fire Alarm Installer License exams will be scheduled when there are enough people registered to take the exam and all involved will be notified as to the time and place.

There will be NO extensions for getting continuing education hours completed. You have had since January 1, 2019, to get your continuing education done. There are a few on-line providers available.
