Training Center
Through progressive partnering, the Oregon-Columbia Chapter
of NECA and IBEW Local 48 has developed the foremost electrical
apprenticeship program in the country. Our nationally acclaimed
Apprenticeship Training Program provides the most skilled and
productive electrical workers in the industry and is emulated
by chapters and locals across the country. Our training program
is a cooperative effort funded through our Joint Apprenticeship
Training Committee – not taxpayer dollars. This private effort
allows us to maintain and develop a skilled, qualified workforce
for today and for the future. |
