"We are extremely proud to add some of Broadway's finest stage electricians to the list of ETCP-certified technicians," said Paul F. Dean, Jr, chairman of Local One's board of trustees. Dean helped organize a four-day training course prior to the exam administration. "Our members who are ETCP-certified also include technicians from Lincoln Center, The Metropolitan Opera House and various television studios who work throughout Local One's jurisdiction which includes Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, and Westchester and Putnam Counties." Each of these entertainment electricians are now listed on the ETCP website. ETCP-certified technicians can be identified on the job site by requesting to see their ETCP ID card that includes their picture, date of certification and most importantly, area(s) of specialty.
