About the NCQLP Examinination
Lighting is the single most important element in the visual environment. Effective lighting improves productivity and strengthens security. Lighting consumes up to 40 percent of the energy used in our buildings. A well-designed lighting system reduces energy, maintenance, and potential liability costs. Both public and private interests are served by more effective lighting and reduced operating costs. Rapid improvements in lighting systems and equipment offer potential solutions, yet they have also made lighting practice more complex.
As the lighting industry has grown, a number of efforts have been undertaken to differentiate the knowledgeable and qualified lighting practitioner. As a result, a need was recognized for an independent, industry-wide credentialing effort. Such a program addresses multiple issues that include: safety, health, productivity, energy conservation and effectiveness, environmental concerns, governmental policy, lighting technology, and competent, knowledgeable lighting practice.
The Lighting Certification Program was initiated by the lighting industry in 1991. Both lighting organizations as well as several governmental agencies whose mission encompasses lighting have been involved since the beginning. Lighting Certification is designed to set a baseline standard covering the entire scope of the vast lighting field. Utilizing the NCQLP’s testing mechanism, qualified individuals can earn their Lighting Certification designation. Applied Measurement Professional (AMP), as NCQLP’s professional testing agency, provides the expertise of an independent testing company in the construction of a valid and reliable examination that covers the entire field. The LC Examination is also continuously reviewed by the NCQLP Test Subcommittee to ensure that the questions which are asked are current, comprehensive, fair and reflective of lighting applications as they are being practiced across our industry today.

The lights are are on and yes
The lights are are on and yes Richard is always home!
Not an easy certification to obtain and speaks volumes to the professionalism of both Richard and Albrite. Awesome accomplishment Richard. Although this supplier is well cemented in the BC marketplace, they are making a definite impression here in the Calgary marketplace. With Darren Zabel coupled Richard Cary, Z no longer means the sign of Zoro but the sign of Zabel!
These two lighting sales professionals are re-establishing the standard by which all others in the lighting industry will soon be measured.
I can easily see Albrite become THE Premiere source in Canada. They have the right products, competitively priced...but above all they are solutions providers not order takers.
Once again Richard terrific accomplishment.
