“You don't have to worry about the debt you accumulate from going to school. With our #IBEW apprenticeship program, you really start right off the bat." - Matt Fuhrman, IBEW Local 56 https://lnkd.in/ezvUaV_Q
Undoubtedly, it's useless to spend the money on college certification or degree in the electrical field when it's covered in the apprenticeship program as well as on hand experience.
The IBEW Apprenticeship is by far the best but, just like the NEC they teach you the minimum standards so you need to remember you can go above and beyond the minimum.
US Navy reservist right here, my rating in the Navy is Construction Electrician, went trough CE tech school. Applied to local IBEW apprenticeship unfortunately didn't pass the aptitude test. Would be nice if they support and facilitate joining the apprenticeship instead of making it too hard to join.
I think this is where I'm applying soon 👍
