To get an Idaho LP-gas dealer license, you need PERC's Fundamentals of Propane Training (or a Board-approved equivalent) and a passing exam. You also need supervised work experience. IDAPA 24.22.01.100.01.
This is not a blanket OK for every PEP or CETP course. The rule names one course and lets the Board approve equivalents. Training and examination provision.
What the rule says
- You pass the Fundamentals of Propane Training exam (or the Board's equivalent) within the 36 months before you apply. 100.01.
- You show at least 2,000 hours of practical experience in an LPG facility, under a licensed dealer. 100.02.
- You get a dealer-in-training license before you start those hours. It cannot be renewed and lasts 18 months. 100.04.
- A facility needs its own license before it opens. That license is not transferable if the facility changes owners or location. 100.05 and 100.06.
- Idaho adopts the 2024 edition of NFPA 58. Section 002.
What this means for you
Keep the experience log separate from the course transcript. Write down the supervising dealer, the dates and the hours as they happen. A transcript shows the class. It does not show the 2,000 hours.
