FAQ for Apprenticeships 01 What is an Apprenticeship? Apprenticeship is an age old training strategy that combines supervised, structured on-the-job training with related theoretical instruction. It is generally accepted as the best training method for certain occupations. Registered programs offer apprenticeships in over 700 occupations. The training program is sponsored by employers or labor/management groups that have the ability to hire and train in a work environment. An Apprenticeship prepares people for skilled employment, with the content of the training defined and dictated by the needs of a particular industry. Apprentices are full time employees. Wages are paid to participants during on-the-job training phase. Wages increase as progress is made in the program, in accordance with the predefined wage progression scale outlined in the indenture agreement. Apprentices become productive members of society, contributing to local and national economies through taxes paid to governmental agencies. Participants learn by working directly under the supervision and tutelage of masters in the craft, trade or occupational area. Qualified, competent journeymen stand ready to teach deserving apprentices. A typical apprenticeship program spans 4 to 5 years with a minimum of 144 hours of related instruction per year. The program requirements are clearly delineated in Federal and State laws and regulations. A registered apprenticeship requires that a signed, written agreement (indenture) between the sponsor and apprentice be negotiated. The apprentice agrees to perform the work faithfully with diligence and to complete the related course of study. The sponsor agrees to make every effort to keep the apprentice employed and to comply with the standards established for the program. This legal contract insures quality training on-the-job and in the classroom and leads to a certificate of completion and journeyman-level status. These credentials have explicit meaning, recognition and respect in the eyes of Federal and State governments and relevant industries. 02 What does indenture mean? Indenture is a formal agreement that someone will work for someone else for a particular length of time, especially in order to learn a job. 03 What are the career opportunities? Opportunities for advancement abound in the electrical industry. New technologies are opening possiblities unheard of just a few years ago. In response to the ever expanding global economy, industries scramble to find more efficient energy and communication systems. The men and women trained through Mountain States programs are up to any challenge. They are confident, competent individuals. Most graduates continue to work in the industry in some capacity. Many hold management positions, others are successful business owners. Your career is limited only by your level of enthusiasm. The Logical Career Path: -Entry Level Worker, Student or Career Change -Apprenticeship -Journeyman -Instructor or Safety Trainer -Foreman, Supervisor or Business Agent -Superintendent, Engineer or International Rep -Business Owner, Utility Executive or International Officer 04 What makes a good candidate?
