This class is a two-day course. The morning of Day 1 is four and one-half hours of instructor lead teaching through the class material. In the afternoon of Day 1 two and one-half hours is practice on drilling and cleaning holes in concrete beams and then installing an adhesive anchor in the vertical down position that is plumb and of the correct depth. This is followed by practice on installing an adhesive anchor in the overhead position. Day 2 begins with a brief Q&A session to answer any remaining questions, followed by filling out the demographic forms for the written and practical exams, then administration of the 90-minute written examination. Vertical down practical exams are then administered one at a time with those not passing going to the back of the line for their second trial. Practical exams for installation of an adhesive anchor in the overhead position are the final test.
