If you are talking about NETA exams, there are education/experience requirements for NETA II/III/IV. As soon as you are hired with a NETA company you are NETA I, but to move up you require 2 years experience or 1 year plus an associates/bachelor degree to take the NETA II exam. If you meet all the experience requirements, I was told you can take all 3 exams at once, but if you fail any sub-exam you stay at the lowest cert until you pass (i.e. take NETA II and III and pass the III but fail II, you still sit at NETA I). I have never seen a company authorize taking consecutive exams like this, so it is still a urban legend in my experience. Since the first requirement is that you are employed by a NETA credited company, they are responsible for submitting you for exam through NETA.

Only a single 2 yr degree is used toward taking off 1yr of experience from the required time to take exams, anything more is not used.

I unfortunately cannot speak for NICET exams.

Many thanks Kalbi. Appreciate your reply and the great information to start. I will try to reach NETA and find out more information.
