But unlike most college programs, apprenticeship offers the chance to learn a skilled trade through a combination of related classroom instruction and paid- on-the-job-training. Apprentices work under the guidance of a journey-level worker on real job sites, gradually earning more responsibilities as they learn more. The more they learn, the more they earn! Apprenticeship is the start of a great, family-wage career you can take pride in. Contact for more information..
