About The
Houston J.A.T.C.

The Houston Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee is the local training affiliate of the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee. The NJATC was created over 60 years ago and has developed into what is the largest apprenticeship and training program of its kind. Local programs affiliated with the NJATC have trained over 300,000 apprentices. This joint program between the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) has clearly demonstrated the most cost effective way to train qualified craft workers.

The Houston JATC provides an apprenticeship and education program for individuals desiring a career in the electrical construction industry. The Training Center offers two courses of study – Electrical Construction Apprenticeship, and Teledata Installer-Technician Apprenticeship. Both of these programs are registered with the United States Department of Labor. The Training Center also offers various courses to journeyman electricians and technicians and to others who have not yet reached journeyman level.
