The Residential Electrician Training program provides students with the theory and work practices necessary to pursue entry level employment in the Electrical Technology. This program is intended to train students in electricity classifications and categories; conduit fittings and supports; residential electrical installation; heating and lighting practices; and conductor properties and characteristics. Students are given the opportunity to learn about safety techniques, using circuit analyzer tools, mathematics of electricity, cabling and boxes, lighting and heating practices, blueprint reading, power systems, and the business of being an electrician. The program is designed to be completed in 6 months. However, students can decide to take more time to complete it. This program covers safety for residential electrical installation and tool usage, basic electricity and AC current theory, and a wide range of installation procedures for both residential and commercial properties that are compliant with the requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC). Students are also introduced to electrical practices commonly required in industrial manufacturing as well as advanced print reading and career development. Upon completing of the program, students are given the Journeyman Exam Preparation Guide.
