Educations and Careers

Not a certified electrician? We accept applicants that have gone through the Apprenticeship.

Apprentices are required to complete extensive classroom training and 8,000 hours of field electrical training, and they must pass the journeyman electrician’s licensing exam. Upon completion of the program, all apprentices obtain the Journeyman’s License or equivalent. Selection into the program also is based on oral interviews.

The recruitment, selection, employment and training of all apprentices during their apprenticeships are without discrimination because of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability or age.
