Anchorage ARC VEC No Longer Restricted to Alaska

Effective 8/21/2018, the Anchorage ARC VEC is no longer restricted to conducting VE testing sessions inside the State of Alaska.  For many years, such a restriction has been in place due to rules relative to our State of Alaska Gaming Permit.  These restrictions no longer apply.

While we don’t intend to offer wide-spread VE services in other states, it is an option for some.  For example, we do have one group in the state of Maine who will be using our services shortly.  We are in the process of building a VE team for that area.

And while we are on the subject of team building, the application process to become a VE for the Anchorage ARC VEC has gone online.  Applicants will now complete an online form to start the process.  Once we’ve verified that they are indeed eligible to become a VE, they will then complete an open-book examination online.  The purpose of these changes is to streamline the process and to decrease the time it takes to certify VEs.  Click here [1] to learn more about how to become a VE with the Anchorage ARC VEC.
