Topeka Electrical JATC Local 226
Background Information
We are the electrical apprenticeship in Eastern Kansas. No one in our area can offer the same level of career training for electricians. We utilize both on the job training and related classroom instruction, with a nationally recognized curriculum, to offer a true "earn while you learn" education. Our apprentices earn good wages and get healthcare and retirement benefits at no out-of-pocket expense. We are affiliated with IBEW local union 226, which ensures the best wages and benefits in the area, the best training, and the safest working conditions for electricians in our area. Our selection process can be lengthy, depending on when you apply, but it is easier for veterans and we often have other job opportunities in the meantime. Give us a call, and we'd be happy to talk to you about our apprenticeship and whether it is right for you.
Why we want to hire veterans
Veterans in our program are typically more experienced, better disciplined, and have a higher success rate than their non-veteran peers. Some of our best electricians are veterans. Everyone deserves a good career, with good wages and benefits, that they can be proud of.
What we currently do for veterans at our company
Veterans have earned a shortcut in our selection process. Veterans that are eligible for educational benefits can recieve them during their apprenticeship. We also have a group that puts on a benefit for homeless vets every year.
