If you are tired of low paying, dead end jobs, or are unsure what path you want to take after high school, maybe a career in the electrical field is for you.
IBEW Local 24 and the Maryland Chapter, National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA), sponsor unsurpassed training programs for our members and apprentices through our Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee (J.A.T.C.).
Our state-of-the-art training facility offers an educational program approved by the Bureau of Apprenticeship, U.S. Department of Labor, and the Maryland Apprenticeship and Training Council.
Apprenticeship is an all-inclusive program providing quality education to individuals pursuing a career in the electrical field. This program implements both classroom instruction coupled with hands-on learning and on-the-job training.
Individuals study all related electrical theory in the classroom with subject matter experts as it correlates into real-life job experiences. Apprentices spend 80% of their apprenticeship in the field gaining skill and knowledge from skilled journeyworkers. Our goal is to provide our students with the necessary skill, knowledge and experience to be a successful craftsman in the electrical field.
The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) teamed up to sponsor the most rigorous and respected apprenticeship training program. We are a four-year apprenticeship program of classroom instruction and 8,000 hours of on the job training, dedicated to training electricians. Our program is committed to providing enrichment opportunities for our students and educational excellence.
