Electric Code & Theory

Click Here for specific details on current courses

Would you like to become a licensed electrician/journeyman? According to the Massachusetts State Board of Electrical Examiners, before you take the licensing exam you must first complete:

800 HOURS OF EMPLOYMENT (approximately 4 years) as a learner or apprentice under the direct supervision of a licensed journeyman.
600 HOURS OF TRAINING (8 Modules - approximately 75 hours each) in electrical code from an approved school.

*(Note: If you started working as an electrical apprentice before July 31, 2001, you are "grandfathered" under the old 300 hour classroom training requirement.
If you started working as an apprentice after July 31, 2001 you must complete 600 hours of classroom training. the 8000 hours apprentice employment requirement has not changed.)

Please Note: There is no set order for the two requirements listed above. For example, you may start working as an electrical apprentice first or you may start the schooling first or you may do both concurrently.

Important: Each of the Electric Code & Theory modules we offer consists of 19 classes or 76 hours. If you do not complete the 76-hour module this semester, you will be required to register and pay in full for another semester if you want to make up the missed hours.
Please note: we will provide two make-up classes at no extra charge at the end of each module.
