Missouri electrical exam prep self-study, 2017 NEC version
Prepare for the 2017 NEC version of Missouri’s Journeyman, Master, Residential Journeyman or Residential Master electrical exam.
Prov offers 2017, 2020 and 2023 versions of each exam. This package covers the 2017 version.
Prov gives these exams for Missouri’s Office of Statewide Electrical Contractors (OSEC). The Prov Missouri bulletin (revised November 9, 2026) lists the 2017 NEC as the open-book reference for each 2017 version. The same package fits the St. Louis County Master Electrician exam and Springfield’s ICC W16 and W17 exams, which also test the 2017 NEC.
You get the core 2017 NEC lessons JCR teaches in its live classes, set up so you can study at home on your own schedule. JCR, founded in 1985, has trained 20,000+ electricians. 93% pass rate for JCR classroom students.

JCR’s tabs stay on for good, so they meet the rules for every exam on this page. Section 10.2 of Prov’s Missouri and St. Louis County bulletins allows permanent tabs and bars repositionable tabs and Post-it notes. ICC’s test-site rules allow tabs that can’t be removed without destroying the page.
Topics include NEC navigation, test strategy, Ohm’s Law, ampacity, overcurrent protection, dwelling and service calculations, grounding and bonding, box and conduit fill, motors and special occupancies.

Buying for a crew? Ask about discounts on 5+ packages. Phone JCR at (704) 696-8555 or send an email.
Can I take the 2017 version instead of 2020? Yes. Pick the exam name that ends in 2017 when you book. Taking a 2020 version? Use JCR’s Missouri 2020 NEC package.
Which exam do I need? Your licensing office decides. For the statewide exams that is OSEC. For the others, call St. Louis County at (314) 615-4591 or Springfield Building Development Services at (417) 864-2059.
Can I test from home? Yes for Prov. Its Missouri and St. Louis County exams run at Prov test centers or online with a remote proctor (Examroom.ai). Springfield’s ICC exams run at Pearson VUE.
What about the NASCLA exam through PSI? Missouri’s PSI bulletin lists the 2020 or 2023 NEC for it, so this 2017 package is not the right fit. The Missouri 2020 NEC package covers it.
Kansas City or another city? Many Missouri cities run their own exams. Check the code edition with your city before you order.
Does self-study earn CE credit? No. This package is exam prep only.

Victor's class is always very informative and enjoyable to attend every year I go.
Awesome Class Victor is a great instructor
Great class. Definitely gave me the confidence to take the exam o,I didn't have before.
It's the perfect method to ace the exam 👍
Did the CEU 8-hour course with Victor. It was great. He broke down how professionals should address and use the NFPA. Thoroughly enjoyed the knowledge and experiences.
I have been attending JCR Productions now for 30+ years. Victor Ring and Jeff Rodriguez have instructed me from my apprenticeship days to passing my unlimited license exam. They have been a huge part of helping me to gain the knowledge I need to be successful in the electrical field. They make it fun as well. I have recommend JCR Productions for exam prep and CE courses to hundreds of people over the last 30+ years. I would not go anywhere else!
Victor Ring was my instructor and he did an amazing job at being very informative as well as interactive, and his concern for practicing safety was priority #1. Definitely looking forward to learning much more from this group.
I have taken the CE classes with JCR for the last 13 years. I hold 15 state master's and 6 contractor's license and I look forward to going every year. Victor Ring is a well-educated and an excellent instructor. I would recommend this program for your CE requirements or your master's exam prep.
I have enjoyed going to Victor's CEU classes since I first started attending them a few years ago. He has a lot of experience and is very knowledgeable on the NEC and in the electrical industry. I plan to do all my CEU's with JCR every year.
I have attended JCR classes on several occasions. I used their exam prep and feel very confident in saying it was a large portion of my success. I continue to use JCR classes with Victor Ring for CE credits and have no intention of stopping in the future.
I completed my 8-hour Continuing Education Electrical Code course with JCR Productions and had a great experience. If you need to complete your required hours to maintain your electrical license, this course is an excellent choice. Victor Ring kept the class upbeat, engaging, and easy to follow. He does a great job breaking down the material and showing simpler, more efficient ways to navigate the NEC Code book, which makes the information practical and immediately useful in the field. Highly recommend this course to any electrician looking for a professional, informative, and enjoyable way to get their continuing education hours completed.
The exam prep class was great. Victor is very knowledgeable and takes making sure everyone is ready to take the test personally. Never met anyone that cares about people and how their future. I will defiantly going to taking more classes in the future.
Always learn something new from every class I have taken from JCR production. Really enjoy the way Mr Ring teaches class. Thank you ! Ken Koehler
Taken multiple JCR classes, specifically with Mr. Victor ring, love his classes. He’s extremely knowledgeable in his field and can present info in a way that’s easy to learn. Will continue using him for all future classes and continuing education credits.
Victor Ring has a gifted mind for understanding electricity and he shares that information in an impressively articulate manner. He is a great teacher, and I would recommend JCR to any professional electrician who needs to brush up on their skills and learn new methods of installation to serve our customers and ourselves well. Big ups to Vic! -Willis Tisdale Greenville SC
I always thoroughly enjoy the seminars with Victor Ring and JCR . Victors knowledge of the material he is teaching and his delivery is superb. Which is matched with his office staff who are very helpful.
Highly Recommend the Exam Preparation class!! Victor is great! I will continue using JCR in the future.
I recently attended the Exam Prep Class and I was extremely impressed with Mr. Victor's approach to navigating the code book. He took what can be an intimidating book and simplified it in a way anyone could understand. He is without a doubt, the Best teacher I have had the privilege of learning from. I will be using him for my continuing education classes in the future.
This was absolutely the best class I have ever attended during my journey in the trade! Victor is awesome and extremely knowledgeable! He truly inspires you through his teaching to become the best you can be! Awesome!
I recently decided to go for my electrical license. Taking the JCR test prep really helped me to better understand navigating the code along with some additional methods for using the code that helped clarify the book. I will continue using JCR for my continuing ed along with other resources. Highly recommend taking this exam prep!
As usual Victor's class was highly enjoyable and energetic. He is a 1st rate instructor, and JCR is the only place I'll go for exam and CE studies.
Victor was fantastic . The class was very informative. The study guide from Jeff and Victor were a driving force behind me passing my electrical licensing exam . I can’t thank them enough. They changed my and my family’s life for the better . I wish I could give more than 5 stars . Will only be doing CE with the JCR team .
I have been using JCR Productions for more than a decade and am never disappointed. Victor is bringing some fresh trainings that apply directly to someone that owns their own electrical business.
I have been going to JCR for my North Carolina license continuing education since 2001 and this class has always kept me on top of the code changes and a refresher of all the material in the code book. I have gone to other continuing education classes for licenses in other states and JCR has always been my favorite.
