An apprenticeship is a structured program that combines classroom instruction with on-the-job training. Apprentices are hired by an employer that agrees to sponsor their apprenticeship in their desired program of study. Apprentices will begin working for their employer almost immediately and start their on-the-job training with a highly skilled mentor. At the same time, apprentices will enroll in their required program courses at ECC. When classes begin, the apprentice will attend courses at ECC on the designated days and continue to work for their employer sponsor, typically on days, they are not in school. Current students can submit an Apprenticeship Interest Form to be contacted by a representative from Strategic Partnerships and Experiential Learning to schedule an appointment with the apprenticeship coordinator.

ECC has apprenticeship opportunities based on the Learn while you Earn model, which involves paid on-the-job training. In addition, apprentices receive incremental wage increases as their skills and knowledge increase. Check out the calendar for details on upcoming Apprenticeship Program Events.
