Apprentices work full-time for one of Local 104's signatory contractors while attending classes two evenings per week from September through May at our state-of-the-art Training Facility. This combination of classroom education and hands-on field experience ensures every apprentice develops the skills, knowledge, and professionalism needed to become a highly qualified journeyperson.
