TUITION & FEES


Classroom and OJT

The Journeyman Inside Wireman (JIW) Electrician Apprenticeship program is a five (5) year program that combines classroom and hands-on training with on-the-job training.   Each accepted apprentice will be assigned to work for one of our electrical contractor partners for additional training and learning in the field to supplement their classroom education.   Apprentices are paid a wage that is a percentage of the prevailing inside journeyman rate in the current Inside Agreement between IBEW Local Union 520 and the participating electrical contractors.   The full wage scale can be found here.
