Electrical Apprenticeship Opportunities in Phoenix area
Veterans are highly encouraged to apply!
At the Phoenix Electrical Apprenticeship Program, we prepare our students for careers in the electrical industry as journey level workers. Students progress through the program’s accelerated 5-year, state recognized curriculum guided by our journey level instructors, while also learning hands-on skills under the supervision of our journey level workers on construction jobsites for 8,000 hours. As students progress through our 4-year program, they will learn increasingly advanced knowledge and skills while gaining the confidence they need to succeed before and after graduation. While in the program they will earn competitive wages and benefits from the very beginning! All our apprentices will be assigned to work in a full-time position with one of our signatory contractors through the training Center. Currently our first-year apprentices attend school at our facility one day every two weeks for training. Meanwhile our second through fourth year apprentices go to work during the day and attend school once a week during the evening.
