The goal of this program is to prepare you for employment in any of the related areas of the electrical trade (Safety and OSHA Standards, Electrical wiring, Residential Wiring, Commercial and industrial wiring). An Electrical Training Card ("ET Card") will be issued to active students so they can continue to work or begin work while attending school!
After obtaining your license, with some supplies, and a vehicle, and referrals, you can start taking jobs pretty quickly. You can work on your own terms and do what’s most convenient for you in your career.
Each campus has a Career Services Department that will work with you to secure employment in your chosen profession.
