Interested applicants may enroll in one or more of the four design disciplines:
- 开销电
- 地下电
- 气体
- 变压器室
如何成为一名合格的设计师 (广告/ CD)
Starting 2024, the DQP team is adopting a new process for applicants to become Qualified Designers. The intent is to streamline and simplify the process for becoming qualified. Moving forward collecting design hours via RUBRICs will not be necessary.
新申请人:
- Pass a DQP Exam within one of the four disciplines (开销电, 地下电, 气体, or 变压器室) to become a Qualified Designer within the given discipline.
- A DQP Exam in one of the four disciplines includes 标准/manuals related questions and design related questions.
- Upon passing the DQP Exam, the applicant will be qualified within that discipline.
- The 变压器室 exam will be available after a passing grade is received on the 地下电 exam.
For Existing Applicants who have passed an exam, but are not yet qualified (2024 only):
- Existing applicants who have already passed an DQP Exam (开销电, 地下电, 和/或气体), will have one year (within 2024) or three attempts (whichever comes first) to pass a Supplemental Design Exam for that discipline.
- If a Supplemental Design Exam is failed three times, the applicant will need to begin the qualification process over again as a New Applicant.
- The Supplemental Design Exam is intended to test design knowledge and not duplicate 标准/manual content.
- Upon passing the Supplemental Design Exam, the applicant will be qualified within that discipline.
- Applicants who have already passed the 地下电 and 变压器室 exam (but not yet qualified) will become qualified in both disciplines once the 地下电 Supplemental Design Exam is passed.
注:
- 如果申请人没有通过考试, they will be required to wait three months to register for another exam in that discipline. 这适用于所有考试.
- It is the responsibility of the designer’s company to provide training for the exam. The Designer Qualification Program will provide information needed such as manuals, 标准, 和计算器.
