4 year degree: Pay a ton to go to school Learn very little practical skills Graduate with a mountain of debt Maybe find a decent job if you're lucky Once in said job, be nothing but a cog in a machine with no idea how to start your own business Electrical apprenticeship: Get paid to go to school Learn one of the most practical skills in existence No debt upon graduation Be basically guaranteed a great job upon graduation With slightly more experience, have the skills and knowledge to start your own business and quite possibly become a millionaire very young I have a 4 year degree, but if I could go back I'd go to the electrical apprentice school in a heartbeat
I know right I'm currently in the cross roads of going go college or university college accepted me and it's a lil cheaper while varsity is Hasn't even accepted me.
@419chris419 People with 4 year degrees, I'm told, make more on average than the general non degree holding population, but I've never seen anyone claim that people with degrees make more than tradesmen on average. And in fact I highly doubt that statement unless you can back it up.
Another video, this one on internship at Miller Electric. That company is not only one That provides career training. You wanna check out more, maybe I can help. But check this video out, lemme know what you see…
Ughhhh wish I lived in Florida our ibew in Las Vegas didn’t even have the decency to respond to my application. Now I went to electrician school and had to take out a student loan 🙄
That’s what I was gonna do but the trade school was offering a degree in electrical technologies but also a community college is offering the same major so I’m just gonna do that without the loan
Non union contractors will do the same education. The IBEW can be difficult to get into, but the non union companies will send you to trade school while you work as well, at least here in Texas
What options are there for those who have been electrical helpers in the trade for years? Id like to get my license but not sure wether to apply for a formal apprenticeship or just take the classes with my own funding. Any recommendations?

Hi I was wondering how are you doing with the apprenticeship? I was looking at millwright but was discouraged to find most jobs asking for year 2 apprentice. Not able to find any year one placement at all.
The program consists of approximately 8,000 hours of on-the-job training and around 1,000 hours of classroom instruction. Learning to become a well-rounded commercial/industrial electrician requires many hours of hands-on practice and this program gives you that opportunity.
Our program is part of a national organization called the Electrical Training Alliance and there are several hundred similar apprenticeship programs located in most major cities. Go to www.electricaltrainingalliance.org for details.

Statistically speaking those with degrees still make more in the long run compared to trades.

The requirements are for too extensive just to do electric wiring
I mean its a Skilled Craft, what did you expect?
