Eight new hires entered electrical training with little or no experience. Now their final Field Readiness Test is approaching, and everything they have learned over the past two weeks is about to be put together.
Before the real test, the trainees practice planning their work, bending conduit, installing boxes, making measurements, and completing a full electrical rough-in under time pressure. Ethan reflects on how far he has come before taking another run at the project that will determine whether he is ready for the field.
The individual skills were only the beginning. Now they have to complete the entire process correctly, safely, and fast enough to pass.
