There are three recommended courses that are offered by the ARRL. These courses cover the full spectrum of emergency communications from basic communicator through EC. Taking these course will assist you in becoming a better emergency communicator
On-line AREC courses permit students a maximum of 8 weeks to complete the course. Students may complete the course much more quickly if they so desire. Many students complete an AREC course in about 20-25 hours. The schedule for Hybrid AREC classroom courses is determined by the instructors just as license classes are. They may be scheduled for one or more weekends, or during the evenings.
Once you have completed a course please notify the PPARES EC.
