Explore the dynamic field of electrical trades with our half-day job shadow event. The day begins with an informative presentation about the electrical trade, followed by a tour of our state-of-the-art facilities. We’ll then visit a local jobsite, offering you a real-world glimpse into the profession. Here, you can engage directly with our experienced foremen and apprentices, gaining valuable insights into the trade. This event is an ideal opportunity for high school students and post-graduates interested in learning more about the electrical industry.
JOB SHADOW SCHEDULE
Job shadow events happen multiple times a year and coincide with school schedules. We keep events small, capping them at 20 people, so you can get a closer look at what working in the trades is like. Small group sizes allow for more personable experience and students will have plenty of chances to ask any questions. Job shadows are one of the best ways to gain first hand exposure to a career that interests you.
