HiraEdu helps WV elevator mechanic candidates verify eligibility, organize the current reference stack, and practice installation, maintenance, safety, and code lookup.
The WVDOL Elevator Mechanic exam is a three-hour open-book test with 120 questions and a strict approved-reference list. Preparation should confirm four-year experience eligibility, delivery choice, English or Spanish option, current ASME and Elevator World materials, reference-marking rules, and the installation, maintenance, safety, and code domains.
Use these checkpoints to confirm WVDOL eligibility, reference compliance, and three-hour exam strategy.
West Virginia Division of Labor uses Prov for Elevator Mechanic licensing exams, and candidates must confirm eligibility and exam selection with the Division.
The Elevator Mechanic exam is 120 questions in three hours, with Installation 25, Maintenance 37, Safety 30, and Code 28 questions.
The CIB states applicants need at least four years of recent and active experience in the Elevator Mechanic category for licensure eligibility.
Testing is open book using only the bulletin-listed references, with highlighting and permanent tabs allowed but notes, moveable tabs, and unapproved materials prohibited.
Elevator Mechanic is a West Virginia Division of Labor license path in the current Prov bulletin. The CIB states that Prov administers the exam but does not determine which license or exam a candidate needs. HiraEdu helps candidates verify Division requirements, the four-year recent active experience expectation, the English or Spanish exam option, and whether testing-center or Examroom.ai delivery is appropriate.
The current exam outline is split across installation, maintenance, safety, and code. Candidates should prepare for elevator and escalator terminology, mechanical and electrical components, inspection and maintenance procedures, modernization and alteration concepts, safe work practices, hazard control, ASME code references, existing-equipment requirements, platform lift and stairway chairlift standards, and NEC topics that apply to elevator work. HiraEdu builds drills around both technical recall and reference-based code lookup.
The WVDOL bulletin warns that only the books shown in the bulletin may be used and that older books allowed by the prior testing vendor are no longer allowed. Reference materials are checked before admission, and candidates may use highlighting and permanent tabs but not handwritten notes, moveable tabs, Post-it notes, photocopied inserts, or practice exams. HiraEdu helps candidates prepare a compliant reference stack and rehearse the three-hour open-book pace.

The current West Virginia Division of Labor Candidate Information Bulletin says the Division oversees licensing for Elevator Mechanics, HVAC Technicians, and Plumbers and has contracted with Prov to develop and administer its licensing examination program. West Virginia law requires each technician operating in the industry to be licensed, and Prov is not authorized to decide which exam a candidate must take; exam-selection questions must be resolved with the Division of Labor. The CIB lists Elevator Mechanic in English and Spanish, states that exams cost $59.95 for first attempts and retakes, and allows testing at Prov testing centers or by Examroom.ai remote proctoring. For Elevator Mechanic, the bulletin states that the scope of work is limited to maintenance, repair, alteration, and extension of elevators, escalators, dumbwaiters, moving walks, material lifts, and dumbwaiters with automatic transfer devices. It says applicants must have at least four years of recent and active experience in the category to be eligible for licensure. The Elevator Mechanic exam has 120 questions and a three-hour time allowance, with Installation 25 questions, Maintenance 37, Safety 30, and Code 28. Listed references include the 2014 Installation Manual, ASME A18.1 Safety Standard for Platform Lifts and Stairway Chairlifts 2005, ASME A17.1 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators 2007, ASME A17.3 Safety Code for Existing Elevators and Escalators 2020, Elevator Field Safety Handbook 2020, Elevator Maintenance Manual 2nd and 3rd Editions, and NFPA 70 National Electrical Code 2020. The bulletin emphasizes that only the books shown in the bulletin are allowed for testing, older books from the prior testing vendor are no longer allowed, exams are open book, and references may be prepared with highlighting and permanent tabs only. HiraEdu helps candidates verify eligibility, organize approved references, study elevator installation, maintenance, safety, and code topics, practice open-book lookup, and prepare Prov scheduling, photo ID, calculator, reference, rescheduling, result, retest, review, challenge, hand-score, and accommodation procedures.
