Hands-On Learning + On-The-Job Training
Quite simply, an IBEW Apprenticeship means you begin earning and learning right away. Once accepted into the program, your education is a combination of classroom and on-the-job experience.
Full time job experience + classroom education = Long-Term Career Success.
Job Placement + Graduate Debt Free
Job placement begins at the start of the electrical apprenticeship. BEW partners with signatory electrical contractors represented by NECA throughout Michigan who hire our apprentices and journeymen exclusively.
