About the Residential Wireman Apprenticeship

 

As Americans make themselves at home, one of the things they do is upgrade their residential wiring systems. So it's no surprise that demand in our industry for trained, skilled wiremen is going up. Don't let the "men" designation mislead you: This is a career for men and women!

A three-year apprenticeship program leads to the Residential Wireman classification. As such a skilled worker, you would be helping to build new homes, as well as making modifications - and electrical upgrades - to existing dwelling units

With 90 million single-family houses in the U.S., demand just for the repair/upgrade work will never cease. What's more, as more and more folks buy computers, and buy items with electronic components that are sensitive to electric power quality, there's more need for Residential Wireman's skills... the kind of skills that are best taught by the NECA/IBEW team.

Our contractors want to capture more and more of this work. They're ready to hire someone who's ready to learn. And, we pay you well to learn the trade. Earning while learning is what apprenticeship is all about.
