About Candels
Our Company
Candels was established in 2003 to fill a growing need for electrical estimators. To this day, that need continues to grow because the electrical industry is aging, and the knowledge base is dwindling. We saw the gap: apprenticeships teach you how to install, but they don’t teach you how to estimate. We created the CandelsPRO™ Certification to bridge that gap. Throughout our history, Candels has always been committed to education and the betterment of the industry because it is good for all of us. The Candels Family wants to ensure that that knowledge base is replaced!
Why CandelsPRO™?
Most training programs are built by software developers. Ours was built by electricians. We understand that true estimating is about visualizing the installation, not just clicking buttons. When you enroll in a CandelsPRO™ program, you aren’t just getting a certificate; you are gaining access to the same systematic approach that has made us the industry leader in outsourced estimating.
