Welcome to a Rewarding Career in the Electrical Industry.. Do You Have What It Takes To Become An Electrical Journeyman Wireman? The Cedar Rapids Electrical JATC is a joint Labor-Management training program made up of the combined support of IBEW Local 405 and the Iowa Chapter of the National Electrical Contractors Association. In 1941, the IBEW and NECA established the National Joint Apprenticeship Training Committee (NJATC) by developing standards that are used nationwide to train thousands of men and women for demanding and rewarding careers in the electrical industry. Our electrical apprenticeship programs offer an individual the opportunity to "Earn While You Learn"- where you are paid to learn and gain work experience under the supervision of a qualified journeyperson.
Apprenticeship Classes Apprenticeship classes will begin the week of August 23rd-27th. Letters for apprentice book costs were sent out on July 29th. If you are an apprentice and do not receive your notice by August 6th, please call the JATC office at 654-9238. All book costs are due the first day of classes.
