?? Student success story: While working as a handyman, Gregory found out about the Skillpoint Alliance pre-apprentice electrical program from his sister, who thought it would be a good opportunity for him to start a more stable career. After doing some research, he thought the program would be a great fit for him and his son, and they both enrolled in Skillpoint’s pilot electrical class in Killeen, Texas in November 2023. In December of 2023, the Grimes’ received first and second place in the skills challenge, a showcase that is held at electrical graduations for students to show family, friends and employers what they have learned during their time with Skillpoint. A local employer, RK Bass, was in attendance for this showcase and was extremely impressed with Grimes' skills. Both Gregory and J.R. were hired on by RK Bass and now work as apprentice electricians/laborers, getting to work on various projects within the company. ??? Ready to write your own success story?

Over the past 6-weeks, the third-year apprentices completed their "Hazardous Locations" coursework. To increase their learning, their instructor built a lab to help them understand the function of a sealing fitting (seal-off) and provided them with the skills necessary to install a sealing fitting properly. The apprentices then worked to install the Killark Electrics sealing fitting, pull in wire, separate and space the wires, pack the seal off with packing wool, mix the Killark sealing compound, and then pour in the sealing compound to make an airtight seal. The following day, the apprentices tested their seals by pouring water down their conduits to determine if they succeeded in making a proper seal off. Did some fail? Absolutely! That's what's great about labs; failures are just opportunities to learn more! Out of the 100+ apprentices who completed this installation, only 10-20% have previously had the opportunity to install a seal off in the field. We provide labs like this to ensure our apprentices are well-trained, well-prepared, and ready to succeed in the electrical industry. #electricalapprenticeship #ApprenticeshipsWork #futureelectrician #apprenticeship #etATraining #ibew347 #necaofiowa #Killark #hazardouslocations

At Barts Electric, the real training starts when the apprentice hits the jobsite. You see, becoming a skilled electrician isn’t just about knowing which wire goes where—it’s about understanding the craft, the nuances, and the responsibility that comes with it. That’s why, after completing our four-week in-house program, every new apprentice is paired with a seasoned electrician who’s been around the block a few times. This isn’t just mentorship; it’s a rite of passage. We make sure our apprentices aren’t just thrown to the wolves, but rather, guided by those who’ve tamed them. If a rewarding career as an electrician sounds interesting, Barts Electric can provide the path: https://lnkd.in/gNCTpwN7 #BartsElectric #Electrician #Mentorship #Apprenticeship #Training #Careers #TradeJobs #SkilledTrades

In my years of experience in the electrical industry, I've seen firsthand the importance of investing in the next generation of electricians. At WA Electrical and Antennas, we've always believed in the value of taking on apprentices, and here's why: 1. **Preserving the Craft**: The electrical industry is built on decades of knowledge and hands-on experience. By mentoring apprentices, we ensure that this expertise is passed down, preserving the high standards of our trade. 2. **Bridging the Skills Gap**: As technology advances, so do the demands of our industry. Apprentices bring fresh perspectives and are eager to learn about new technologies. By training them, we're not just filling jobs—we're building a skilled workforce capable of tackling the challenges of tomorrow. 3. **Fostering Growth**: Apprenticeship programs are more than just training—they're about building confidence, fostering a strong work ethic, and developing problem-solving skills. This growth benefits the entire team and, ultimately, our clients. 4. **Giving Back**: We all started somewhere, and many of us were given the opportunity to learn and grow through an apprenticeship. By offering the same opportunities to others, we give back to an industry that has given us so much. Investing in apprentices is not just good for business—it's essential for the future of our industry. Let's continue to build, support, and mentor the electricians of tomorrow. Thanks for all the help from BUSY At Work - The Apprenticeship Community and South Metropolitan TAFE with our apprentices ???? #ElectricalIndustry #Apprenticeships #Mentorship #electrician
