NCCER’s Electrical Levels 1-2, 12th Edition Now Available

The National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER) has published the first two levels of the 12th edition of its Electrical curriculum, offering industry-standard training that aligns with 2026 National Electrical Code® (NEC®). This new revision for one of NCCER’s most widely adopted curricula helps set the foundation of safety and skills for electricians beginning their career.

In addition to updated code alignment, the 12th Edition has been thoughtfully restructured to create a more streamlined learning experience that better aligns with modern electrical training programs. Content has been consolidated and refined to better reflect how electricians are trained today, with Level 1 focusing on electrical theory, outlets and junction boxes, and conduit preparation and bending; Level 2 streamlines modules related lighting, motors, circuit breakers and fuses.

With these changes, the 12th Edition updates deliver a more accessible and engaging curriculum, with simplified language, improved readability, enhanced visuals, and upgraded instructional support including improved lesson plans, PowerPoints, and classroom resources.

Electrical Levels 3-4, as well as NCCERconnect courses for the full Electrical 12th Edition, are in production and coming soon.
