Training tools
EARC classes use the ARRL manuals which treat subjects in an organized manner. Related questions are covered together in the chapters.
Classes use the Internet program "Ham Academy" (HA) to help students master the material. HA is basically an "electronic flash card manger"
that keeps statistics. Click here for a link to the on-line Ham Academy software.
For students preferring non-computer based review material, paper flash cards are also available
and are an effective learning tool. Click here to download flash card print files
Both HA and paper flash cards reference chapter and page numbers in the ARRL manuals
to speed student look-up.
Ham Academy can print practice examinations very close to those used by VE teams. Practicing
with the same procedures used at test sessions can help students be comfortable with the testing process.
