Spring 2024*
Registration and Schedule
*schedule subject to changes, return here for updates
We ask that all participants watch for changes with state/local mandates during the duration of our training to prevent the disruption of Alaska-based businesses and help keep industries running at full steam!
How It Works
1. First-time students must take the $145 online class prior to a field exam. You can register a first-time participant for the online class when you register a participant in one of the field exams.
2. The online class only has to be taken once.
3. Field Exams are held in the Spring and Fall in the following locations: Anchorage, Fairbanks, Juneau, Valdez, and Kenai, and Prudhoe Bay/Deadhorse.
4. There is no night certification in the Spring for the State of Alaska. In the Fall, night certification exams are held only at the Deadhorse, Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Valdez locations.
5. The field certificate is valid for six months.

We now take payments online directly through the portal as well. There is a 5% discount for early payments. A final invoice will be sent after the last field test if the balance has not yet been paid. Terms are net 30. Certificates are emailed pending full payment. Please login to the registration portal to make payments.
Participant Cancellation Policy
We offer a 100% refund with 2-week notice. If there is equipment failure or a field exam cancellation AER will reimburse participants unable to attend any re-scheduled or alternate field exam.
Trouble accessing the online registration?
Participants may “Walk-on” during the field test of their choice and register there by signing the participation roster we have available on site. There is plenty of space for everyone at all sites. If people who have not been registered before are going to show up, they should first take the online class prior to arriving to the field exam.
Having trouble in the registration portal, or with the online class, please email Shawna Popovici at the email listed on the About Us page.
