Electricians install electrical systems in structures.  They install wiring and other electrical components, such as circuit breaker panels, switches, and light fixtures.  Electricians follow blueprints, the National Electrical Code® and state and local codes. To prepare trainees for a career in the electrical field, this program utilizes NCCER’s (National Center for Construction Education and Research) comprehensive, 4-level Electrical curriculum that complies with DOL (U.S. Department of Labor) time-based standards for apprenticeship.
