ABOUT THE APPRENTICESHIP
Apprenticeships are employer-sponsored training programs. You must have a contract
before being invited to school. A special application process is used for these programs.
Please contact the Apprenticeship Office for the proper forms. Apprenticeship means you
earn while you learn. If you want a career in a skilled trade, apprenticeship is the best way
to get there. You’ll combine on-the-job training with on campus learning—you’ll have the
best of both worlds when it comes to learning the skills you need to get ahead. And even
better, you’ll earn a paycheck while you learn those skills.
ABOUT THE CAREER
Electricity powers industry. Keeping electrical equipment running is critical to the bottom
line. The Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship program is an employer-sponsored, handson training program in which you’ll learn to maintain and repair many different types of
electrical equipment. If playing an important role on an industrial organization’s team is
your goal, a career as a journey-level electrician is a great way to reach it.
CAREERS
Graduates of LTC’s Industrial Electrician Apprenticeship program work as journey-level
industrial electricians in commercial, industrial, and public establishments.
