Apprentice


The NECA-IBEW Electrical JATC offers a five-year apprenticeship program, which combines both on the job and related classroom training.

If accepted into the apprenticeship program, apprentices are assigned to an electrical contractor for a minimum of 8000 OJT (on-the-job) hours and attend 800 in classroom hours. The OJT is full-time and primarily day shift while the classroom hours are currently two nights a week.

Apprentice wages begin at 50% of Journeyman pay and over six periods increase to 100% as OJT and classroom targets are attained.
