== Exam weighting by Skill Set ==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Skill Set !! % of exam
|-
| [[Training Standard/5351 Protect Self and Others|Protect self and others]] || 10%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5352 Communicate in the Workplace|Communicate in the workplace]] || 2%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5353 Utilize Tools and Equipment|Utilize tools and equipment]] || 9%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5354 Rig, Hoist, and Lift|Rig, hoist and lift]] || 10%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5355 Evaluate Job Requirements|Evaluate job requirements]] || 6%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5356 Plan, Build, Maintain, and Disassemble Systems|Plan, build, maintain and disassemble systems]] || '''26%'''
|-
| [[Training Standard/5357 Implement a Temporary Power Supply|Implement a temporary power supply]] || 6%
|-
| [[Training Standard/5358 Install, Control, and Disassemble Lighting|Install, control and disassemble lighting]] || '''21%'''
|-
| [[Training Standard/5359 Manage Portable Power Supplies and Maintain Batteries|Manage portable power supplies and maintain batteries]] || 10%
|-
! Total !! 100%
|}

Two skill sets — ''Plan, Build, Maintain and Disassemble Systems'' (26%) and ''Install, Control and Disassemble Lighting'' (21%) — together make up nearly half the exam. Focused review there is likely to pay off disproportionately.

== Two paths to the exam ==

* '''Registered apprentices''' sit the exam after completing (or nearing completion of) their apprenticeship. See [[Becoming Certified]].
* '''Exam-challenge applicants''' (never formally apprenticed) may sit the exam directly if they can show 5,000 hours of on-the-job experience and competency in all mandatory skills. See [[Becoming Certified#The exam-challenge path (non-apprentices)|Becoming Certified]].
