I passed the test in record time!!! Class was awesome! Rich was right, he said we would be "swimming in time if we paid attention and did all the homework". I would recommend this class to anyone interested in taking the test.


Your class was the best money I ever spent.  Compared to your prep tests, the actual test was a piece of cake.  Thanks again.


Hey Rich, I hit it out of the park with the test.  Thanks for the help.  Your class was very helpful, and I wouldn't have passed the test without it.  I thought I was going to have the most difficulty with motors, but I flew by the motor and calculation questions. I was so stressed the first time I took the test - but with your help and taking my time - the second time I took it made the difference.  It was my goal to be a licensed electrician, and with your help now I am.  Thank you, Rich, have a good one.


Your presentation at the section meeting last year was honestly one of the most interesting and informative presentations I have attended for the IEEE organization. Thank you.


I just wanted to let you know that I got more out of your class then most of the ones I take. Between your teaching style and the group participation I actually learned things rather than just sitting to collect the hours.


Hey Rich. Really appreciate the lesson. I can only image what instructors go through to keep an 8 hr lesson plan on track and interesting. You did both!


The class was very helpful and I recommend to anyone taking the test to take your class first. I do plan on using EEC for continuing education.


I first met Richard at Pennsylvania Hospital. Never having worked with him before, I didn't know how critical his inspection would be. I found Richard to be very knowledgeable, easy to work with, and extremely helpful with code questions I had. In addition, he was careful to protect our interests and reputation by suggesting the presence of pre-existing code violations to the owner's representatives. These violations might have reflected badly on us in the event they caused an accident or hazard to their employees or facility. I admire his integrity and would highly recommend him as an educator in his present position.


Rich, I wanted to reach out to you and thank you for the great presentation today. I have been at many code seminars on the East Coast as well as the West Coast and I found yours to be informative, entertaining and since you were a contractor you understand what we are up against.


Hey Rich, I just wanted to share some of my good news with you. As you can see from the copy of my Experior letter that I sent you, I passed! I just wanted to say that I couldn't have done it without you. I would also like to thank you for everything and look forward to working with you in the future.


Rich, the seminar two weeks ago was not only informative, but was presented so that it held our interest. That is not an easy task for ten hours of NEC. Anyone who can keep their class informed and still interested after ten hours of code is close to a miracle worker. Thank you for a wonderful presentation.


I wanted to let you know that your excellent teaching has made yet another Master Electrician. I took your 2008 NEC Codeology Exam Test Prep in April-June 2009 at the Best Western in Bethlehem. I scheduled my test 5 months later in November, even after you told us we should schedule as soon as possible. Well you were right, I scored a 74, failed, but I kept reviewing the questions we had in class and retook the test in February and PASSED! I really enjoyed your teaching style. I'm looking forward to getting licensed in New Jersey and will be coming back for more. Thanks again.


Rich, I just wanted to say that I really got a lot out of your Exam Preparation course, and I think you do a great job with it. I may have been the farthest away, but I can say I looked forward to coming every week. I have taken this whole thing very seriously and the whole process has taught me some good lessons too. Just when I think, "I know it all," I realize I have a lot to learn. Thanks a lot.


You were professional and had a great 'down to earth' approach to answering questions. I had a great learning day, and it was well worth the time and money. I would recommend your courses to any contractor.


Rich, since you've been on the contractor side of the fence, it is obvious that you understand the contractors' problems and can relate to us. This is one of the best training sessions I have attended, it was very well done.


Rich, after I attended your classes and passed my contractor exam I was hired immediately to run work. I received $60,000/year to start and a company car.


The cost of the course didn't bother me 'cause as soon as I passed the contractor's exam I received a $15,000 annual raise in pay.


Rich, I just wanted to let you know I passed the test today. I appreciate all you effort to help me. Thank you.
