IEC El Paso Chapter

A paid apprenticeship pairs full-time work with a licensed electrical contractor and classroom training. Apprentices earn a paycheck while building skills and experience toward becoming licensed electricians. IEC El Paso is the local chapter of Independent Electrical Contractors, an organization formed in 1957 to unite independent electrical contractors. The chapter supports member organizations in the El Paso area with education programs, industry information and services, member events, and communication at local, state, and national levels. It also connects apprentices with local contractors and job opportunities. Training includes work on real job sites while attending classes. The program is designed as a career path into the electrical trade, with opportunities to build work hours and experience before pursuing licensure. The chapter serves the El Paso electrical contracting community.
