Becoming an ARRL Volunteer Examiner with WCARC

If you’re interested in becoming an ARRL Volunteer Examiner (VE) with WCARC we’d love to have you as part of our team.

This is a great way to give back to the Amateur Radio Community and help others join the hobby.

You really need to hold and Amateur Extra license to be an effective VE.  While you can be a VE as General license hold, you’ll be limited in the testing you can support. Therefore, we highly recommend you focus on getting your Amateur Extra ticket first.

The 3 steps in becoming part of the WCARC VE Team

Step 1) Get your ARRL VE Credentials.
