Hi,

I am considering moving out to the states (not sure which state yet) sometime within the next couple of years. I am just wondering what i would have to do to be able to work here. I was apprentice trained for 5 years and have taken courses such as inspection and testing, fire alarms, e.m. lighting. I also hold a technicians certificate along with 15yrs experiance. i am employed at present as a foreman on contracts up to the value of $450,000 approx (commercial work).
Are there any conversion courses or exams i need to take to be able to trade?

Also what kind of pay is the average. i realise that different states urban/rural reflect upon this.

Any feedback would be a great help.

CHEERS
