This interview is conducted at the Apprenticeship school by the JATC members. They will ask questions about your academic history, job history, related training/hobbies etc. all in an effort to place the best qualified applicants into our program. We receive anywhere from 100 to 250 applicants per year and take in 20 - 40 apprentices each year, so this is the hardest part of the process.

You will start at 40 % of Journeyman’s pay and receive advances of the term of your apprenticeship. You will attend classes in the evening roughly 2 nights per week from Sept. thru May. Although there is no tuition fee, you will be expected to pay for your books and must have a laptop computer with wireless capabilities before the class year starts. You will receive periodic raises during your apprenticeship and will receive employer paid benefits (health insurance, pension, annuity)
