There is no examination for Telecommunications certification but you do need to hold an FCC General Radiotelephone Operator License (GROL). Let us know if you need assistance obtaining this license.
iNARTE is an FCC designated Commercial Operator License Examination Manager (COLEM).
The GROL license is comprised of FCC Element 1 and FCC Element 3.
Please see our FCC licensing page for more information as to how to register and complete these exams.
If you have been an iNARTE certified telecommunications professional for more than two years, chances are you’ve gained expertise. Your iNARTE certification should reflect your current skill level.
If your experience exceeds your certification level, it is time to upgrade* your iNARTE certification level. Go to iNARTE Certification Levels to determine the certification level for which you qualify.
* Note: Upgrade applies only to Telecommunications certification categories (EMC, ESD and ATL are not eligible for upgrade).
