Apprenticeship History & Training Requirements
Apprenticeship training is a form of education that incorporates workplace training with technical in-school training. Since 1972, IEC has conducted apprenticeship training programs under standards approved by the U.S. Department of Labor.
We encourage our men and women interested in electrical and communication careers to consider what IEC training has to offer.
