An electrician apprentice with a part-time schedule works 35 or fewer hours each week. In this position, you receive training from an experienced electrician, usually a journeyman who already completed an apprenticeship. As a part-time electrician apprentice, you learn essential job duties like how to install and repair electrical systems, test and troubleshoot those systems, read blueprints, and maintain an electrical system’s current condition. Your responsibilities may also include traveling to different job sites with your trainer, learning to work with various tools and diagnostic equipment, and undergoing training on proper safety practices. Apprenticeship jobs often lead to journeyman electrician positions after several months to one year of successful training.
