Electrical Apprenticeship Opportunities in Western Washington

An electrical apprenticeship at Puget Sound Electrical JATC is an exceptional way to learn skills in the electrical field while working in the industry. It is an “Earn While you Learn” environment. Apprentices attend school one or two days a week on a quarterly basis. The classroom and lab instruction are the foundation for the skills used in the field. While on the job, apprentices work with licensed union journey-workers on various types of electrical jobs.

Application Overview

Getting into the apprenticeship is highly competitive and we receive over 2,000 applications for apprenticeship each year. Please keep in mind that just because you go through the application process does not mean you will be selected for apprenticeship. That may sound discouraging, but the rewards of being chosen as a PSEJATC apprentice are well worth the effort it takes to get into the apprenticeship. Completing the apprenticeship program of your choice will have life-long benefits for you and your family.
