Observing apprentices on the job and talking with foremen about how the apprentices are doing is a critical part of our program.

Thank you to Foreman Teresa Baranowski for showing us around your job site and some of the newest tech you guys are using to ensure accurate and efficient layout!

Want to be impressed? Look what these HIGH SCHOOL KIDS were up to on this snowy morning!

Kids from area building trades classes came together to compete in their chosen craft!

We have no doubt we got to meet with many of the next generation of construction workers today!

Can’t wait for you to apply!

We were happy to host River Forest HS. at our Training Center recently. It was nice to meet the students and give them a feel for what electrical work is all about! We might have even met a few future electricians!
