Apprenticeship Programs
ATTN: NWACC's goal is to provide a safe campus without compromising your learning experience. Learn more.
NWACC's Workforce apprenticeships are ideal for those who enjoy working with their hands, problem solving and learning the mechanics behind the systems that keep buildings up and running.
The college offers apprenticeship education options for apprentice plumbers and apprentice electricians.
As a student, you are able to earn while you learn. In addition to working full time, you'll attend one four-hour class each week.
Learn more about each program:
- GED or high school diploma
- Students must be 18 years of age
- Current employment in the trade with a licensed plumber or electrician
Completion of apprenticeship awards a US Department of Labor credential recognized nationwide.
Plumbing and electrical programs require state licensure.
NWACC is also developing a Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) USDOL apprenticeship. Learn more about the HVAC apprenticeship and certificate of completion:
