Elimination of CE for HVAC, Plumb and Gas Fitters
 

I am opposed to this proposal concerning the elimination of any continuing education requirements for licensed tradesman. I believe the present class hour requirements are minimum for licensee renewals to remain current regarding code changes and updates for public safety.

Consider relaxing the present requirements to every three years instead of two years parelleling the Codes cycle changes. Mantain the CE requirements for all four trades.
