I would start by looking on google for your girlfriends home state about journeymens lisences. Than I would ask your girlfriend the names of the local
techinical schools that teach electricians. You can look on their websites for the programs and email the teachers from the websites.

Either the state electricians people will know the rules or the schools. My guess is you will have to take some american classes and probally the test again. Which would be easy for you since you are already an experienced electrician.

The big part will be the waiting game for permission to work. After you are married and rush right over to immigration it just takes time to process and
also additional time waiting to get your number so you can work.

I am not sure but maybe you can go to school without a social security number
after you are married on a student kind of number as many foriegn students are
never given social security numbers. just the numbers so they can register
for classes at their school. i think most schools in the usa are used to foriegn students and know the rules well. most schools have lots of foriegn students.

so start with googling journeymen electricians for your girlfriends home state
and second look up teachers on the local community colleges (two year schools) or technical schools in her area. She will know the names. The teachers websites will be on the sites.
