Florida Electrical Apprenticeship & Training (FEAT) - Featschool

m space and funding for coordinators and instructors. The Electrical Contractors contribute training materials and supplies. Apprentices work daily in the trade under the guidance of a mentor -- a journeyman electrician. It is the journeyman's job to teach the apprentice the hands-on techniques of the electrician's job. Apprentices are registered with the Department of Labor and the Florida Department of Education. Many partnerships enhance FEAT's ability to benefit apprentices and contractors. Local chapters of the Electrical Council of Florida, Florida Association of Electrical Contractors and International Association of Electrical Inspectors reward the accomplishments of our theory graduates. Teachers and coordinators all come from the electrical industry. These dedicated teachers work with the students in the classroom two nights a week, teaching them the theory of electricity and applications of the National Electrical Code. We currently have 3 class locations to best serve our students. FEAT continues to be a highly effective strategy for training and preparing electricians for today's and tomorrow's workplace.
