The apprenticeship program is a highly structured training system that combines on the job training with related and supplemental classroom instruction. The apprenticeship program is designed to train people with little or no prior knowledge of the electrical craft or trade. Apprentices work during the day with an electrical contractor, who pays the apprentice directly for time worked, and then attend classroom instruction in the evening. Class is held twice a week during the school year at the Training Center in Castroville. The rate of pay is based on the level of progress in the program. Apprentices start at 45% of the Journeyman rate. Classroom time is not compensated.
The electrical construction trade is a physical experience performed on ladders and scaffolds, requiring climbing, pulling, twisting, crawling, and crouching in cramped or confined quarters. Work is performed outside, in semi sheltered, finished and unfinished building environments. Employees are exposed to the elements and the debris of the construction site. Workers are regularly required to lift and move objects weighing more than 50 pounds. Electrical systems are coded by color; therefore workers cannot be color blind. Apprentices shall be under constant supervision of a Journeyman Electrician at all times.
