Hello again everyone. I managed to get in touch with the local union hall thanks to a helpful member here, and got a general idea of how the apprenticeship goes.
At the local hall in Philadelphia, the apprenticeship is apparently 4 days a week working, 1 day a week in school. I don't pay for schooling, just for books: in fact, the local would pay me some extra for going to school. I have a general idea of what the work will be like, but I'd like to hear from some journeymen and apprentices here on what the day to day is like.
Did you find the work and training for your apprenticeship helpful, and if so how? What did you do to get the most out of it? Also, for you electrical instructors and trainers out there, what do you expect from apprentices? What do you expect them to be doing to make the most of their time with you? And what do you try to do to help them?
Thanks in advance for all responses. Feel free to email me privately if you wish.
