Two years in, non-union electrical shop in the Bronx. We've started doing a lot of PTAC and through-wall unit replacements in apartment buildings, and my boss wants two of us to have the 608 by the end of the year.
Searching online gets me a hundred sites and I can't tell which ones are legit. Some say online with a webcam, some say you have to go in person. Is there a supply house or a school in the city people use? Or is the online one fine? Appreciate it.

First, make sure whoever you test with is an EPA-approved certifying organization. EPA keeps a list; check it before you pay anybody. Second, how the test is given depends on the organization and the type. Some offer remote proctoring, some only do it in person, and Type I has its own rules. Ask them directly what's proctored.
Plenty of supply houses host test days too. Call the counter at the one your shop already uses.
Appreciate it. Found one on the list that does remote, booked it for next month.
edit: update for anyone in the Bronx, passed Core and Type I on the first try. Going for Type II in the spring.
