About
The Electrical Trades Technology program prepares students for entry-level electrician positions and apprenticeships (apprenticeship requirements vary by state and locality). This program uses a combination of distance education for online ‘theory’ courses and hands-on campus lab courses to teach entry-level electrician skills like understanding circuitry, safety practices, and basic electrical theory. The program builds on that basic knowledge with hands-on training in designing, wiring, and troubleshooting systems like burglar alarms and motor control circuits commonly used in the home environment.
