Actually there are a few ways to do this. You can go to a Lineman College and pay to learn some basic skills that will make you more employable to a line contractor or utility. Another way is to get an entry level position at a utility and then become an apprentice. I went through the NJATC which is the National Joint Apprentice Training Center which is run by the IBEW and local contractors. I paid a small application fee, took a general knowledge test and then had an oral interview. A score is then given to each applicant and as the classes come up they choose the top scores. I will confess that it took nearly a year and half for me to actually start doing line work from the time I turned in my application. The best decision I ever made.

Answer 4

To become an apprentice, it is necessary to have completed your high school diploma with science and math experience. Once you have graduated, you must look for an employer that is seeking an apprentice. You can do this by searching for a specific trade of interest in your local area and contacting them personally.
