Multiple Pathways

The Baltimore Electrical JATC sponsors registered Apprenticeship Programs in the Electrical and Telecommunications fields. Application requirements are the same for both programs.

 

Electrical Program

Electricians install and maintain all of the electrical and power systems for our homes, businesses, and factories. They install and maintain the wiring and control equipment through which electricity flows. They also install and maintain electrical equipment and machines in factories and a wide range of other businesses.

Electricians usually start their work by reading blueprints – technical diagrams that show the locations of circuits, outlets, load centers, panel boards, and other equipment. After determining where all the wires and components will go, electricians install and connect the wires to circuit breakers, transformers, outlets, or other components and systems.

Apprentices in the Electrical apprenticeship start at $21.15 plus health benefits for you and your family. It is a 5 year program. Graduates become Journeymen Wiremen in the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW). Current Journeymen receive $47.00 per hour.
