hours every 2 years

Utah electrician licenses, issued by the Division of Professional Licensing (DOPL) under Utah Code 58-55-303, operate on a biennial renewal cycle (expiring November 30 of odd-numbered years for most trade classes; verify current expiration for the specific class). Licensees must complete continuing-education hours each renewal under Utah Administrative Code R156-55a-303c, including a code-update course based on the National Electrical Code edition currently adopted by Utah. The exact hour count is set by DOPL rule. Only DOPL-approved providers and courses count toward the requirement. Verify the current hour requirement, approved provider list, and NEC edition on DOPL Electrical (https://dopl.utah.gov/electrical/) before each renewal. Source: Utah DOPL Electrical.
