Getting a job right out of high school?

[MuslimGator]

I'm 17 right now and should be getting my high school diploma in June. I think I have to be 18 to work as a tech, but I have no prior work experience at all. If I self-study for the PTCE and pass it, would certification help me to get a job once I turn 18? And I can't register for the test since I don't have a hs diploma yet, so does anybody know if there any test dates over the summer?

You'll have to review your state's laws on this matter.

You should not have any problems getting a Job once You Pass the PTCE. Look Up the other requirements for getting registered as a tech and start putting them together. I think thats it.

The PTCE should be offered over the summer. Check out their website http://ptcb.org for testing dates. The test is offered all the time at a testing center near you.
