Room assignments and exam-day reminders

PRC has posted October 2026 room assignments for both examinations. Open the official room assignment page, select Electronics Technicians, and find your testing center. Read any location-specific advisories and check the official examination program for reporting times, allowable items and instructions. Check the venue again before traveling because advisories can change.

Application and eligibility

Applicants use PRC LERIS for the application and appointment process. Prepare the PRC-required proof of identity, educational records and other profession-specific documents; consult the official PRC requirements for your applicant category. Eligibility and supporting documents for ECE and ECT are not identical, so do not rely solely on an older checklist or fee figure.
