floyd2009-web2.jpg Summer is the time to take advantage of the new and innovative opportunities in your education and career.  ADDA continues to move forward with many behind-the-scene changes that will become available this fall.     

Online Examinations are moving ahead.  Due to changes in some of the ASME Standards and ICC Codes, additional corrections were needed to bring the examinations fully compliant.  Also the examinations were reviewed a second time by our Technical Education Committee.  The Review Materials are now being written. 

The Beta Examinations will be ready for the 2010-2011 Educational Year. 

We apologize that the examinations were not released as originally scheduled.  There are many requirements that must me addressed. We ask for your patience in this development and correction process.  Verifications must be made with numerous standards and oversight organizations to assure the accuracy of the examinations.
