Apprenticeship Overview
The duration of the apprenticeship is 4600 hours and takes approximately three (3) years to complete.
90% of training is done on-the-job while under the supervision of a Journeyperson Technician.
10% of learning is done through attending two (2) levels of Trade School – Basic (10 weeks) & Advanced (10 weeks).
The program also requires attendance to mandatory Supplementary Training Classes (STC) on some evenings and Saturdays.
Apprentices are assigned an advisor who will guide them through their apprenticeship.
Apprentices work for a member company of the Greater Toronto Electrical Contractors Association (Greater Toronto ECA).
Apprentices are dispatched by the IBEW Local Union 353 (IBEW LU 353).
The geographical area covered is from Lake Ontario north to Parry Sound, and from Trenton in the east to Oakville in the west. An employer could send an apprentice to a jobsite anywhere within this area.
Apprentices are required to provide their own transportation to the jobsite. Most workdays begin at 7 a.m.
