ARE YOU READY FOR NOT JUST A JOB, BUT A CAREER?
Electrical workers earn high wages, and experienced workers are in high demand. The most successful electricians are self-starters who accept responsibility for delivering high-quality workmanship.

HOW TO GET STARTED
You must be working for an IEC contractor member before classes begin. IEC staff will attempt to assist you with employment. You must continue to work for your IEC contractor to continue with the program. CLASS SCHEDULE & LOCATION Classes start every August. Apprentices attend school one night per week for 2 semesters of 20 classes in each semester. Class times are typically from 5:30–8:30 PM. Classes are held at our Training Facility.
APPRENTICE’S RESPONSIBILITY ACADEMICS
Class attendance is critical. No more than 3 absences per school year are permitted A 70% passing grade each year must be maintained to continue to the next year of classroom training.
WORK ETHIC
We expect the highest level of work ethic to be displayed by the apprentices while working for one of our contractors. Attendance, reliability, awareness to safety, initiative and a positive attitude are the attributes of an IEC Apprentice.
OPPORTUNITY
Becoming an electrician is a smart career choice. With the increasing reliance on electrical and automated systems, training future electricians is more important than ever. With a projected shortage of electrical workers, prospects for employment have never been higher. Working in the electrical construction industry is one career that cannot be outsourced!
