RARS License Classes and License Exams For dates, location, or other information about the classes contact the RARS Education Director. For dates, location, or other information about exam sessions contact the RARS VE Chairperson. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, no in person classes are scheduled in the year 2020.
We hope to resume in person classes when it is safe and practical to do so, perhaps as early as March 2021. Our classes will be offered as part of the Wake County Public School System’s Life Long Learning Program. Please keep an eye on this webpage and the RARS newsletter The Exciter for details.
LICENSE CLASSES
RARS conducts Amateur Radio License classes several times each year. The RARS Education Director plans classes aimed at the Technician, General, and Extra class license. Several RARS members volunteer to teach class segments in areas of their own special interest.
