There
are many paths that can be taken to find employment and
to receive training in the construction industry. The
apprenticeship programs are pathways to well paid journeyman
positions and give the apprentice the opportunity to earn
as they learn. The State of Washington supervise
all of the apprenticeship programs within the State.The
community colleges in Snohomish County provide training
in pre-apprenticeship job skills that can lead to direct
entry into many of the apprenticeship programs.
Community
Colleges provide an important training resource for the
construction industry. Course offerings range from pre-apprentice
job skills training to Construction Management.
The
listings below represent the Colleges primary focus but
they all offer a number of classes directly related to
the construction industry.
There
is a strong demand for well trained journeymen in all
of the construction trades. Employers are looking for
individuals with good math skills and a strong work ethic.
Take the sample math test and see if your math skills
add up to becoming an apprentice.
