License or upgrade candidates may take tests at the Coweta Public Safety Training Facility, on Greison Trail in Newnan.
The Coweta VE team usually holds its test sessions in even-numbered months, often but not always on the fourth Sunday of the month. Contact for the exact date of the session you're interested in.
Finding this location may be challenging for persons unfamiliar with Newnan. Examiners will monitor the K4SEX 145.13 repeater to "talk in" anyone who misses the entrance to the site.

At the Training Facility:
The Coweta Public Safety Training Facility has no prominent identifying signage. It is on a deep lot with a large parking area and some modular buildings. There may be fire equipment visible on the property. The light gray modular building with a covered porch, directly facing the main parking area, is the usual testing location; if that building is already in use, another, white modular building connected to the gray one, may be used instead.
