Charleston Electrical Training Alliance

CETA offers a four-year apprenticeship program, which combines both on the job and related classroom training. The goal of the Electrical JATC is to give our students a well-rounded electrical education so that they can “hit the ground running” when they graduate as Journeymen-Wiremen. To accomplish this goal, we provide our apprentices with 900 hours of classroom training and over 8000 hours of on the job training over a five year period. All electrical apprentices receive incremental raises as they reach certain set milestones. They also receive retirement plans and medical coverage for themselves and their families. Upon completion of our apprenticeship program, the apprentice receives certificates through ETA, NSAC, and OA documenting their successful completion of the program.
