A Volunteer Examiner Coordinator is an organization that has been authorized by the Federal Communications Commission for the administration of amateur radio license examinations in the United States. The VEC system is established and outlined in Part 97 of the FCC rules and regulations.[1]
The FCC maintains a list of the authorized VECs and accredited VEs (volunteer examiners).[2]
Although the FCC currently recognizes 14 VECs, the VEC sponsored by the American Radio Relay League oversees about two-thirds of all U.S. amateur radio examinations, and a large portion of the rest are overseen by W5YI-VEC.[3]
