Why WECA's program

WECA's apprenticeship programs have been called the best in the Western United States: high graduation counts, great reviews from apprentices and contractors alike, to-the-point NEC-based curriculum, and a dedicated, experienced, full-time teaching staff.

Classes run in an accelerated, intensive format — full-time classroom training and hands-on labs for two consecutive weeks, approximately every five to seven months. Each session equals a semester. Your tuition is paid by the WECA member contractor who employs you.
