Electrical Lineman Appentices - Los Angeles Trade Technical College

Electrical Lineman Appentices from Los Angeles Trade Technical College is a Campus Certificate Engineering General degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. PROGRAM OVERVIEW LATTC's Apprenticeship Education program offers classes to students who are registered to learn a trade under agreement with the State of California Division of Apprenticeship Standards, and are required to attend college classes during their registered apprenticeship program. The LATTC Apprenticeship Education program is part of a state approved industrial plan for training skilled workers. It is enabled nationally by the Federal Apprenticeship Law (known as the Fitzgerald Act of 1937) and on the state level by the Shelley-Maloney Labor Standards Act of 1939. The program is authorized and supported by the California Apprenticeship Council under the supervision of the joint Apprenticeship Committee (equal employer and employee representation) for each trade under standards approved by the State of California. Apprentices training under the cooperative direction of the college and Apprenticeship committees for their trade may petition to receive credit toward the Associate in Arts degree or the Associate in Science degree for all courses successfully completed. A Certificate of Completion will be awarded when the proper application is made and the student has successfully completed all the apprenticeship assigned in their discipline. Additional courses may be substituted with the approval of the apprenticeship coordinator. Substitutions will be limited to 50%. There are two primary parts to the training of an apprentice: (1) on-the-job training and instruction in the manipulative processes, and (2) in-school training which involves instruction in technical subjects related to the on-the-job training. On-the-job training is comprised of 40 hours per week of supervised work experience and instruction wherein an apprentice rotates through a series of sequential work experiences which are designed to develop the all-around skills of the trade. State apprenticeship law requires that state and local boards responsible for vocational education administer related and supplemental instruction for apprentices. College offerings provide the apprentice with a study of technical subjects, subject to regular class attendance for the duration of the apprenticeship training period. An example of topics studied, which are generally applicable to a majority of trades, includes applied math and science, blueprint reading and drawing, materials, equipment, processes, and health and safety.
