Extra exam question E1E03
Subelement E1, COMMISSION RULES· Group E1E · 47 CFR §97.521
What is a Volunteer Examiner Coordinator?
- A.A person who has volunteered to administer amateur operator license examinations
- B.An organization paid by the volunteer examiner team to publicize and schedule examinations
- C.An organization that has entered into an agreement with the FCC to coordinate, prepare, and administer amateur operator license examinations (correct answer)
- D.The person who has entered into an agreement with the FCC to be the VE session manager
WhyA Volunteer Examiner Coordinator is an organization that has entered into an agreement with the FCC to coordinate, prepare, and administer amateur operator license examinations. §97.521 defines a Volunteer Examiner Coordinator as an organization that has entered into an agreement with the FCC to coordinate, prepare, and administer amateur operator license examinations, answer C. That's a different role from an individual VE who actually proctors a session, and a VEC isn't paid by the VE team, if anything the coordination relationship runs the other direction.
