What Our Apprentices Say

Having obtained a Bachelor’s degree in pursuit of a previous career path, I really liked that IEC celebrates graduation with just as much celebration as a college graduation. This time, however, there was the added element of really driving home just how much the graduates are entering a crucial, needed industry with tons of room for growth! I know my family was very impressed with this, and even got emotional seeing that I’m in a field that’s so desperately needed for our society’s way of life.

There are so many rewarding aspects of being an apprentice but I think my favorite thing is witnessing myself or a fellow apprentice effortlessly accomplish something that at one point seemed so over our heads. It feels really good to level up and see your colleagues do the same.

The most rewarding part to me is the opportunity and financial security the field has to offer.

- David, Student

I feel it’s most rewarding to go home at the end of the day knowing I accomplished something, I’ve built something to better my community.

- L. C., Student

Being an electrician can be a challenging but rewarding career. There are always things to learn and always things to teach as you move further into your apprenticeship. Being able to see jobs from start to finish is also nice to see!
