The Electrician program in Quincy is designed to simulate the real world environment.  Students receive hands-on training in a laboratory environment that features similar electrical components and scenarios encountered in the Electrician field.  Enrollment provides each student online resources such as library services, a student portal, email and online companion courses.   Also, computer labs are open additional hours to provide work-study time outside of classes.  Maximum class size is 30 students.  Theory classes are limited to a 30:1 student/teacher ratio and labs are limited to a 20:1 ratio.

According to the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics:

“As the population grows, electricians will be needed to wire new homes, restaurants, schools, and other structures that will be built to accommodate the growing population. In addition, older buildings will require improvements to their electrical systems to meet modern codes and accommodate higher electricity consumption due to the greater use of electronic equipment in houses and workplaces.  New technologies also are expected to continue to spur demand for these workers.”
