ELECTRICIAN
Program Description
In the Pre-Employment Electrician program, you will learn to install, alter, repair and maintain electrical systems designed to provide heat, light, power and control. Electricians work in residential, commercial, industrial or institutional environments reading and interpreting electrical, mechanical and architectural drawings and electrical code specifications to determine their wiring requirements.
This 12-week program covers all course materials required by a first-year electrician apprentice, plus additional basic wiring skills and safety training. The program prepares you to enter an apprenticeship and, upon successful completion of the program, to write the first year Electrician Apprenticeship Exam. Working in both indoor and outdoor environments, you may be required to lift heavy objects.
